Tuition, technology and more at today's higher ed committee meeting

The House Higher Education Committee is meeting this morning and the agenda includes reviewing recent studies about our state's tuition structure, the higher ed system design and how we can increase use of technology.

For background, you can check out the Higher Education Coordinating Board's draft report on tuition policy and check out our prior coverage on the issue.

Here's some information about HECB's system design plan which will help lawmakers figure out the best investments for educating more students to higher levels. The process is already causing some (ahem) lively discussion among certain stakeholder groups.

And if you're interested in technology issues (and some legislators are very very interested), here's a link to the Technology Transformation Taskforce site.
