Extractions: Progress of Education in the United States of America - 1990 through 1994 PART III EDUCATION REFORM 1990-1994 A r c h i v e d I n f o r m a t i o n U.S. students will be first in the world in science and mathematics achievement. This goal is of particular importance to the U.S. business community since it addresses those skills most needed in the work place. Perhaps for this reason, this Goal is stated exclusively in terms of international competition, since more and more corporations are beginning to understand their mission in terms of a global market. Given the current need for highly trained scientists and technicians, and given the fact that 80 percent of the work force for the year 2000 is already on the job, it is small wonder that business leaders are concerned about the performance of U.S. students on international comparative tests in science and mathematics. According to a report by the National Center for Education Statistics, in 1990, U.S. students faced significant problems in these crucial areas. Researchers found inadequacies both in instruction and in student attitude. In 1990, most students were not receiving the kinds of instruction needed to apply science ideas outside of the classroom, and many teachers did not have adequate facilities or supplies to pursue these types of instruction. Only 56 percent of 8th-grade teachers reported that they had adequate laboratory facilities or were well-supplied with instructional materials and resources. Only 46 percent say they have gone beyond the textbook in determining what they are to teach.

Extractions: carmen.chandler@csun.edu CSUN Students to Graduate Despite Obstacles Along the Way (NORTHRIDGE, Calif., May 20, 2005) More than 8,800 students have been invited to walk across a stage at Cal State Northridge early next month to celebrate their graduation. At that ceremony, university officials will recognize more than just an academic achievement, but also the tenacity and dedication of people determined to get a college education. "Getting a university education is an accomplishment in itself, but earning a college degree while a single parent, juggling the demands of a family, or a job or two makes that accomplishment even more special," said CSUN President Jolene Koester. "Regardless of what has happened, these students were determined to complete their education. They embody what Cal State Northridge is all aboutproviding an opportunity for individuals, even under the most adverse circumstances, to achieve their dreams." Here is a short list of some of these extraordinary graduates: Claudia Hernandez, B.A., Biology and Psychology
