Extractions: A r c h i v e d I n f o r m a t i o n Progress of Education in the United States of America - 1990 through 1994 PART I ADMINISTRATION, ORGANIZATION, AND FINANCING OF THE EDUCATION SYSTEM Because of the Tenth Amendment and the consequent evolution of a decentralized education system, the States and local districts assume a primary role in the organization and operation of U.S. schools. For this reason, the discussion below deals at length with State and district roles in education and only briefly with the Federal role. Because they are administered in a different way, postsecondary institutions will be discussed separately. Over the years, State legislatures have enacted laws to govern the organization and operation of elementary and secondary schools in the respective States. These laws have been provided to guide the establishment of policies and requirements for the operation of public schools at the local level. In most States, policies and requirements are determined by a State board of education and carried out under the leadership of a chief State school officer (the title varies with the State) and a staff of professional educators in a State department of education. Different States have different laws and traditions governing the membership of State boards of education. In most States, members are appointed by the Governor; in some they are elected directly by the people; and in still other cases a member serves

Extractions: Home EC and Pharmacies States With Direct Access I n 2002 Hawaii introduced its first legislation (HB 2806) for EC pharmacy access. Prior to introduction, there were few discussions with key stakeholders, and minimal education or outreach occurred. There seemed to be some support from the Hawaii Medical Association (HMA), but not enough for it to pass. The Board of Pharmacy and the Hawaii Pharmacy Association (HPhA) did not support HB 2806 because they were devoting their attention to HB 1842 which would enable pharmacists to provide clinical services in a broader range of settings including community pharmacies and health care facilities. The more general bill (HB 1842) did pass and became law in July of 2002 and served the starting point for crafting new EC pharmacy legislation for 2003. The second, successful EC pharmacy bill ( HB 123 ) was introduced in the 2003 legislative session. It cleared both houses by May and was signed by the Governor in June 2003. Healthy Mothers Healthy Babies Coalition of Hawaii (HMHB) received a small grant from Advocates For Youth (as part of a regranting effort funded by the Open Society Institute) to improve EC access for adolescents in Hawaii. The grant was used to form an EC Workgroup that initially focused on education and included partners from the Hawaii State Dept. of Health-Family Planning Services Section (DOH-FPSS) and Food and Drug Branch, and other pharmacists. Participants believed that pharmacists and physician collaboration was essential to the successful policy change, but many local pharmacists and physicians did not understand EC or the fact that it could be more accessible through pharmacies without a physician seeing the women first.

Extractions: Faculty governance Essay on GenEd reform GEC resources UH M noa General Education Requirements PDF version available In order to earn a UHM undergraduate degree, a student has to satisfy UH-M noa General Education requirements College requirements (e.g., Arts and Sciences requirements) Major requirements This document concerns the UHM General Education requirements as minimum expectations of educational experience for every University graduate. Colleges and majors build upon this foundation with their own requirements. Thus, this document views Undergraduate Education as an opportunity for each student to find coherence through careful combinations of General Education, College, and Major courses. Furthermore, this document notes certain experiences and abilities that can be best attained by particular course work within the major rather via generic courses required of all students. General education requirements are designed to help students acquire knowledge, skills, and ways of thinking that provide a foundation for lifelong learning. The UHM requirements reflect the unique resources of UHM: the depth of its Hawaiian assets and the breadth of its multiculturalism. The general education curriculum gives students a global sense of human diversity while paying special attention to the heritages of Hawai'i, the Pacific, and Asia.
