Executive Vice Chancellor Dave Spence and CSU Los Angeles President Jim Rosser are working together with the state K- 12 schools and have identified 223 high schools that send us the largest number of students who need remedial education. What we want to do is build a faculty alliance between our faculty and the faculty in those high schools. We want to take our testing information, our results, to those high schools and sit down with their faculty and explain to them what is happening. But also talk about what we can do as a university system to help them with student achievement. So we hope that our English, writing, and math faculty will do that.
Cornerstones is back on the agenda.
Cornerstones will be coming back to this board for the full implementation of the accountability standards at our November meeting. We had a good session earlier last week with the statewide Senate. Everyone understands that this is going to be on the November agenda to be implemented. The last thing that is on our agenda, and again very important, is to negotiate a Compact II with the governor and the legislature. Chairman Hauck has been very helpful.
