DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn September 2005, the Commission released the latest in its series of university eligibility studies. These studies estimate the percentage of California public high school graduates meeting the minimum admission requirements of the California State University and the University of California. The study presented eligibility rates for the high school graduating class of 2001 based on a sample of nearly 14,000 transcripts collected from 1,100 high schools throughout the state. After the study was released, staff began examining the variation in eligibility between schools and the factors driving this variation. Staff is examining the effect of regional location on university eligibility. This fact sheet describes the various considerations and possible implications of the analysis and its results. (Contains 1 table and 1 graph.).

DOWNLOAD EBOOKVarious forms of bias in the British higher education system are examined in ten papers presented at a conference on "Biases in Higher Education." After an introduction by David Warren Piper, Tyrrell Burgess links the Popperian paradigm of scientfic method to the practical possibility of a nonexclusive education system. In "Bias Is of the Essence," he examines the theory of knowledge and learning that would eliminate the systematic biases of the system. Bill Williamson in "Class Bias" compares the class structure of the British system with that of other European countries, and claims that higher education, and the universities in particular, play a decisive role in structuring demand for places. John Richardson, writing on "Geographical Bias," draws on work from counties where geographical distances are so great that the effect on people's chances of becoming students in more obvious than on a small island. He suggests that the principal determinant of geographical inequalities in the provision of higher education is the economic resources of different communities, regions, or countries. Alan Little and Diana Robbins in "Race Bias" describe the working of discrimination laws in the United States. Alan Woodley cites evidence in "Age Bias" indicating that opportunities for adults in higher education have been increasing over the last decade. However, there is some evidence that many more adults are prevented from entering higher education and that those who so overcome the barriers to entry do not represent a cross-section of the adult population. Additional papers include "Sex Bias," by Dale Spender; "Religious Bias," by John Gay; "Disability" by Ronald Sturt; and "Language Bias," by Gordon Brotherston. A bibliography is appended. (SW)
