Starting with entering freshmen in 2001-02, students must pass three of these tests English II, Algebra I and Biology before graduation to earn a high school diploma. The 10 subjects to be tested are: Math Foundations II (also for Math for Technology I students), Algebra I (also for Math for Technology II students), Geometry, Algebra II, Physical Science, Biology (also for Biology for Technology students), Chemistry, English I, English II and U.S. History. The 11th Grade Writing Test will continue to be required. Upon the completion of each of the 10 related academic courses, high school students will be tested for understanding and mastery of these subjects. To give students a stake in the outcome, their grades on these 10 end-of-course tests will count as a percentage of their course grades.

Why should you choose Carson-Newman when there are thousands of other U.S. institutions? The answer to the question is clear. One of Carson-Newman 's finest characteristics is our ability to have dialogue concerning virtually any topic in the context of a Christian worldview. This aspect of our community of learners is very freeing and, therefore, important to the future of humankind. How can the Carson-Newman experience educate our students unless we discuss, analyze, review research and theory, and allow all this to happen in relation to our Christian faith? We must engage the most serious of issues openly and fairly. It is in this type of Christian college environment that freedom and civility take on deeper meanings. We dedicate ourselves and our institution to making such freedom a reality for each Carson-Newman student.

Seven States Urge Bush Action on Tennessee Valley Pollution By J.R. Pegg WASHINGTON, DC , June 7, 2004 (ENS) – Attorneys general from seven states urged President George W. Bush on Friday to immediately require the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) to install modern pollution controls at its 11 coal-fired power plants. A federal corporation and regional development agency, the TVA is the nation’s largest public power company. The attorneys general called on the President to act because efforts to "remedy significant, on-going violations of the Clean Air Act’s New Source Review requirements" have failed and the subsequent pollution is harming public health and the environment. "TVA is one of the nation’s largest air polluters and its emissions degrade air quality throughout the eastern and mid-western United States," said the attorneys general of Connecticut, Illinois, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island and Vermont. All these states are outside of the TVA's service area and do not receive electricity generated by the power plants at issue. The TVA's Paradise coal-fired power plant in Kentucky (Photo courtesy TVA At issue is the Tennessee Valley Authority’s compliance with the Clean Air Act’s New Source Review program, which is designed to ensure the nation’s dirtiest power plants do not expand operations without installing new pollution control technology.
