"The Effects of Increasing Tuition in Higher Education"

The current economic recession has had widespread and troubling effects on every walk of American life. The available resources as the public government funding level and at the individual level are lesser in recent years as corporations fold, families struggle with mortgage payments and individuals work to tighten their belts. Sadly, this is also true at the university level, demonstrating that the impact of a negative economic situation can lead directly to self-perpetuating trends. In this case, the result of diminished public funding for higher education is leading to higher tuition rates, which in turn, is producing lower enrollment and graduation rates. This is underscored in the study by DeMoranville & O’Donnell (2001), who indicate that “colleges and universities are faced with the necessity of raising tuition rates to meet the ever increasing costs of providing higher education. How those increases are marketed may influence the typical negative impact such increases have on enrollments.” (DeMoranville & O’Donnell, 29)

This shows that there is a close connection between economic conditions and access to public education, indicating that there is a real sociological problem represented to our shared education in the mist of this recession.

All indications are that with the economic crisis worsening across the last decade, we may expect to see continued drops in the number of those graduating from top-tier institutions, private schools and other universities. Of course, this also leads to a decline in the number of people who go on to graduate or professional schools following college graduation. The consequence is a trend of declining populations of professionals and qualified specialists in any number of fields. According to Trombley (2003), this is a pattern which is evident across the United States. Reporting on a recent decline in public funding for university education, Trombley indicated that “the result was the worst fiscal news for public higher education institutions and their students in at least a decade, as the economic recession struck almost every state. So far this year, the picture looks even bleaker, with states continuing to cut higher education appropriations and campuses responding by raising tuition even higher, imposing new fees and reducing student financial assistance.” (Trombley, 1)

All of these conditions illustrate the harm in instigating a recession which is related directly to poor budgetary distribution on the part of state governments and failed financial management by universities. The perception of higher education as being inherently competitive and exclusive does a clear damage to America’s social, economic and professional fortunes. In the decades to come, a continuation of these trends will help to reduce our stature on the world stage. The lesser degree of public assistance for higher education suggests a poor resolve on the part of the U.S. and its private universities to help keep the American student and professional on pace with the rest of the world.

While it is true that tuition rates have a tendency to rise annually with the changes in the economy, the presence of general inflation and with trends of growth. It is when the tuition rates are actually indicative of the inverse trend that we begin to see the troubling consequences in our graduation rates. Quite to the point, we are at a phase in history where economic growth is stagnant, decreasing the abilities of individuals and families to foot the existing bills for higher education. As rates raise in the midst of this situation, the cost of higher education becomes yet more prohibitive. The price hikes that Trombley reports are categorically daunting in some states. As the Trombley article tells, “tuition and mandatory fee charges at four-year public institutions rose in every state, startlingly so in some cases. In Massachusetts, for instance, tuition jumped from $3,295 to $4,075, an increase of 24 percent, largest in the nation. Iowa, Missouri and Texas increased tuition and required fees by 20 percent, North Carolina by 19 percent, Ohio by 17 percent. Sixteen states increased tuition and fees by more than 10 percent.” (Trombley, 1)

When prosperity has been either stagnant or on the decline, these increases are nothing short of catastrophic for many families and would-be students. The result is a circumstance which requires creative thinking and ingenuity for resolution. So denote DeMoranville & O’Donnell (2001), who investigate the correlation between a sliding tuition scale and graduation rates. Their research finds that, unfortunately, altering prices to reflect credit loads is not effective enough to counter the trend. Their article tells that “the results indicate that a sliding tuition rate scale does not increase four-year graduation rates. The authors suggest that emphasizing value may make tuition increases more palatable.” (DeMoranville & O’Donnell, 39)

This emphasis on value is merely a suggestion though, and comes with no empirical validation. Indeed, it is a highly speculative suggestion that reveals our present reality. Without the improvement of public funding for universities, the brunt of our recession is taken by the students and their families. If this seems appropriate from the perspective of the governments and universities responsible for our current situation, the coming years of economic and academic decline will expose this as a problematic view. Indeed, the only way to resolve the problems concerning enrollment and graduation is to return to a public philosophy of funding and support for higher education accessibility.

Blog for Religious Fundamentalism

Fundamentalism is a global problem nowadays evidenced in its extreme by religiosity inspire violence. Islam is notorious for its upsurge with terrorism (Jihad), but Judaism also evidences polarized fighting, particularly in the State of Israel, and Christianity, particularly Catholicism, is making its own ripples by pushing its agenda in a public format.
Problem of fund (*)
There are psychotherapists that counsel products of ex-fundamentalist backgrounds, and groups (Encounter groups) that convene particularly to facilitate the meeting of one group with the other (Such as Arabs with Israelis in an attempt to impede the violence. Although helpful, these interventions are structured to individuals who already acknowledge than the problem exists, agree that conflict should be stopped, and are willing ‘to give peace a chance’.
Those who perpetrate violence, however, continue unabated since they do so in the name of religion and believe, from intense and unbolting socialization, that they are committing a sacred act. Any organization thereof has to address this socialization, and has to do so from the perpetrators own perspective, i.e. it has to be an insider.
Furthermore, this organization cannot ??" for the physical safety of leader and members ??" be conducted as an offline resource. For maximum benefit ??" and since this problem is international ??" it has to be done in an on-line environment. My idea would be to slant it as a bog.
Description of Product
The influence of biogas* Bogs ??" run in an effective manner have been known to be influential. If done in a effective manner, they can attract people who are effected bay certain problem.
My research has shown me that there are products of religious fundamentalist upbringing who do question some of the tenets of their socializations. Often they appeal to their educators, or someone in their milieu for direction, but when dissatisfied certain individuals do turn to online assistance. As yet, I have found no satisfactory resource that deals with their questions. There are a number of sites: some cater tot heir particle religious indoctrination and often condemn them fiord asking their question or reason in an (it seems to me) unsatisfactory manner. Others mudsling. Consequences, again from research, appear to veer in either of two directions: some become even more extreme in their perspective (convinced that they ah vex to stifle their questions); others (unmoored from roots) often become disaffected with society.
My intention is to start a bog that features 3 or 4 facilities who are ex-fundamneltists from one particular religion (e.g. Judaism). Each of these faciliatraros are religious but they have a differing approach to the religion: the intentions being to demonstrate that Judaism can contain a variety of perspectives and that Manichaeism ??" the black-white thinking that fundamentalist practice is not only contrary to religion but also destructive.
Mathematical models from field such as logic, general semantics, facet theory, and Judgment and Decision making will be incorporated in responses in order to enable questioner to transition from emotional reasoning (her socialization) to a mindset of objective reasoning. In all cases, he or she will be directed to the source religious fundamentalists are often selective). The three key gilding lines around which the bog will be structured will be: listening behind the question (there are often emotional issues too), objectivity and professional excellence in structure and response; and presented in an entertaining, readable manner. The average reader, I presume, will represent the 18-30 age range. Funding would of course be encouraged, but since utmost care has to be taken to protect the safety of members (and security of bog itself), no endeavors would be made, at least in initial stages, to procure public funding.
