Nick I thought I just read you were volunteering to be on the Kansas Board Education Committee.
The below curriculum of a large Kansas Metropolitan Community College seems to have the new board requirement in place.

[FONT=Verdana]It looks like the Education Criteria for Kansas may have already been set. I was under the mistaken impression based on the 1st Kansas Board Meeting, that we had formed a committee to establish the criteria. Wonder why we’re even bothering with a committee, if [FONT=Verdana][FONT=Verdana]somebodies[/FONT] have already set the rules … why bother.
One of the local KC guys saw this and sent it to me this weekend. Its out of the ****[FONT=Verdana]NEW [/FONT]****Johnson County Kansas Community College’s Spring Catalog. It looks at 1st glance like the Instructor already knows what course criteria, educational provider criteria, and which Associations test has [FONT=Verdana]ALREADY[/FONT] been been approved.
