Book Description

Excerpt from Digest of Administrative Reports to the Governor, 1993-94, Vol. 48 The Board for State Academic Awards (bsaa) was established in 1973 and oversees an examining and degree-granting program known as Charter Oak State College (cosc). Through its consulting faculty appointed from public and private institutions of higher education and its professional staff, Charter Oak State College enables mature students to earn credits on the basis of evaluation and testing procedures that recognize learning acquired through independent study, work experience and other non collegiate educational activity and through course work completed at other institutions. The college is regionally accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges. The 2oth Anniversary Celebration of Charter Oak State College was the major focus of the first part of the fiscal year. The Anniversary Celebration culminated in October 1993 with a banquet at which twenty founders and supporters of the college were honored including former governor Thomas Meskill, former state legislator Dorothy Goodwin and former Connecticut Chancellor of Higher Education Warren Hill. In March 1994, Charter Oak moved to new and larger leased quarters in Newington. The college expects to stay at this location for three years during which construction for its new facility adjacent to Central Connecticut State University's campus should be completed. During the 1994 session, the Connecticut General Assembly approved million in bonding for construction of the new building. The bsaa acted on the 1993 Enrollment Committee report approving a goal of students by July 1, 1996 and the goal of students by July 1, 2000. A major reorganization of staff was approved and implemented to achieve these goals. The bsaa also approved a policy for a three-year pilot to extend the Charter Oak State College degree program internationally with the proviso that no qualified Connecticut resident or other us. Resident be denied admission to Charter Oak while students are admitted from overseas. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
