CCV has special transfer agreements (also known as articulation agreements) with many other colleges that will help you in the process of transferring credits.
CCV currently offers students articulation agreements with the following colleges:
Burlington College
Burlington College is a small, private, nontraditional liberal arts institution located in Burlington, Vermont, that honors each student as an individual. The College offers courses, majors, and degree programs suited to those individual characteristics. These include Associate, Bachelor of Arts, and Bachelor of Fine Arts degrees, as well as an Individualized Master's degree program. Burlington College certificate programs include Paralegal Studies, Cinema Studies, Woodworking and Fine Furniture Making, Cuban Studies, Documentary Film-making, Event Planning, Screenwriting, and Film Production. Burlington College offers both campus-based and distance learning programs. Admission into programs is based on student eligibility.
Through a special transfer agreement, Burlington College will accept all CCV courses awarded a grade of "C" or better. Upper level admission requires strong writing and critical thinking skills. CCV associate degree graduates with a minimum GPA of 2.5 who transfer, matriculate, and enroll in at least 6 credits in Burlington College's campus–based programs are eligible for 20% reduction in tuition at Burlington College as long as they maintain strong academic standing.
For more information, call the admissions office at 800-862-9616 , email firstname.lastname@example.com or visit www.burlington.edu.
Castleton State College
Why Castleton?
CCV students transfer to Castleton State College because of the quality education they will receive through Castleton's strong core foundation in the liberal arts, coupled with over 30 programs, including science or professional degree options. Transfer students appreciate the small class sizes and the learning relationships they develop with their professors, who are experts in their fields and who care about student success.
Through a transfer agreement between Castleton and CCV, any student who graduates from CCV is guaranteed admission to Castleton. Students do need to apply, but there is no application fee. A few Castleton programs, such as nursing and music, have more restrictive admissions requirements.
All CCV credits will be accepted and applied to the student's major as appropriate, then to Castleton's general education requirements, and finally to the electives that fill out a degree. Getting the balance exactly right can be tricky, but if you are thinking of Castleton, you have the advantage of gaining academic advice while you are at CCV that will allow you to make the most of your time at both colleges.
Castleton works closely with CCV and encourages CCV graduates to continue at Castleton. CSC faculty have learned that CCV graduates are capable of becoming some of Castleton's most successful students and alumni. They will make the most of a Castleton education and will contribute in and outside the classroom.
Transfer Pathways
Castleton and CCV have developed pathway plans for popular majors so that students who follow the prescribed plan will not have to take more than 64 credits to earn a bachelor degree.

Europe Parliament vote shark finning ban
23 November 2012
European Parliament voted yesterday, November 22, to close loopholes in the European Union ban on shark finning (slicing off a shark's fins and discarding the body at sea). The measure faced formidable opposition from representatives of Spain and Portugal, Europe's leaders in catch of oceanic sharks.
Members of the European Parliament voted overwhelmingly in favor of the European Commission's proposal to impose the best practice for finning ban enforcement: a prohibition on removing shark fins at sea. The EU banned finning in 2003, but the associated regulation includes loopholes that allow shark fins to be removed on board and landed separately from shark bodies, which hampers enforcement.
Strong finning bans are fundamental to effective shark fisheries management, but finning bans alone are not sufficient to save sharks. The next important step for shark conservation will be the meeting of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) whose Parties meet in March 2013. Members will consider proposals to list commercially valuable, threatened shark species, including porbeagles, hammerheads, and oceanic whitetips.

Step 1
Select a print from the stack. Cut it to 11 ½"x11 ½" and adhere it to the center of your first 12"x12" gray cardstock sheet.
Step 2
Select 2 contrasting prints from the stack. Cut a strip from the first one measuring ¾"x11 ½". Adhere this vertically to the center of the page. Cut 3, ½"x11 ½" strips from the other sheet. Punch along one side of each strip with the decorative border punch. Adhere the first 2 strips vertically on either side of the center strip, scallops facing out.

Darrell Garber, associate dean of education at Northern Kentucky University, will be flying high when he takes over the position on July 1 -- he is a commercial pilot and flight instructor, and his enthusiasm about joining TTU's College of Education is catapulting his career move.
"I am impressed with the way the college uses technology in all aspects of its mission," said Garber. "I think Tennessee Tech's College of Education is three to four years ahead of most other institutions when it comes to technology."
Garber will succeed Dean Richey, who has been serving as interim dean of the college.
At Northern Kentucky, located about 10 miles south of Cincinnati, Garber has been responsible for the administration of the School of Education with an annual budget of more than $2 million, an enrollment of 1,200 undergraduate and 400 graduate students, and 33 full-time faculty members.
While associate dean, his accomplishments include establishing positive relationships with area superintendents, evaluating the School of Education in cooperation with a community partnership committee and establishing a student ambassador organization to promote the school.
Garber considers collaboration and community involvement keys to his success at Tennessee Tech.
"Becoming partners with local school districts, making community connections, fundraising, collaborating at the state level Ñ these are the areas I plan to focus on and consider my strengths," he said.
Before joining Northern Kentucky in 1996, he served as associate professor and director of graduate studies at South Carolina's Columbia College.
Garber earned his bachelor's degree in English and master's in reading education at Clemson University; he earned his doctorate at the University of Tennessee at Knoxville.

Chicago >Food & Dining > Portillo's Hot Dogs

Sun-Thu 10am-11pm

Neighborhoods: Central, Near North Side
A damn good dog, and cheap too. A must try on any Chicago visit.
My favorite dog spot in the city; Chicago dog all the way is the only way for me!
DON'T go through the drive thru unless it's early and not a Saturday night. Italian beef is great but the Chicago dog's a classic and the chopped salad with chicken surprisingly good (dressing on the side).
A quintessential Chicago classic. Don't be scared off by the tourists- join 'em, and make sure they (and you!) try the chocolate cake shake!
Good place to visit – We visited this place almost 2 weeks now. Got invited with a friend. So our visit was great! The food and drinks are delicious and price is reasonable. Nice PLACE!
Good Food – My Honey and I always enjoy our visits here. This is the good place to go for a typical Chicago hot dog. After waiting for five minutes we were served with Potrillo's hotdogs. They also have the best french fries in town and its very cheap.
Tuna sandwiches are to die for! – You absolutely have to try their grilled tuna sandwiches omg!
Too Crowded – Burger place... Fast Food.... Quick bite if you are hungry.
Amazing – I love their food here. My family and I always enjoy our visits here. I recommend trying to come outside of normal lunch hours, otherwise there will be a long wait, but it is well worth it.
gotta love it – I love Portillo's hotdogs, and the service is always fast. They have the best Italian beef sandwiches in town and their french fries are addictive! Only 4 stars because you can get slammed by a lunch crowd there, but I guess it is to be expected.
One Of The Best – Burgers can't be beat....hot dogs are in the top 3 or 4 in the city.

In preparation, the outside lanes of I-20 from Alabama 46 at exit 205 to west of the Tallapoosa River right around mile marker 209 will be closed so that workers can shore up the lane and the shoulder to accept traffic, said DeJarvis Leonard, division engineer for ALDOT.
The outside lanes of east and west traffic will be closed beginning at 8 p.m. to 8 a.m. each day through May 20, weather permitting, according to a news release from the department.
"Motorists can expect delays during the lane shifts," the news release states.
The department suggests using alternate routes or adjusting arrival and departure times during the scheduled construction.
Once the lanes are repaired and shored up, the traffic will be routed onto the outside lane and shoulder so workers can get started on widening the road, Leonard said. It will go through the same process as the first phase of work on the area currently under construction, he said.
In addition, according to the news release, westbound traffic from mile marker 210 may also be reduced to one lane intermittently over the next few weeks.
Georgia-based contractor C.W. Matthews will be handling the project, Leonard added.

Not quite...
There are many types of thinset; primarily modified and unmodified. An unmodified is also called a dryset thinset (mortar).
A thinset is typically spec'ed for a maximum of 1/4" thick application layer. If you need more than that in one layer, you'd use a medium bed mortar (often called granite or marble motar). Depending on the formulation, these can ususually be installed up to around 1/2" thick, and have more sand in them to support big tiles (not that thinset can't be used for big tiles - depends on how flat the floor and tile are and other considerations).
With a modified thinset, it needs to both cure (chemical reaction with the cement and water) AND dry out. One of the primary things in a modified thinset is a laytex or similar compound. This needs to dry out.
Mixing a thinset must be done to the manufacturer's specs - in essence, on a modified thinset you need to first wet all of the components, let it slake (rest), then mix again to then cover all of the mortar cement bits with laytex that was hydrated in the first action. If you don't do that, it won't have the proper consistency nor will it have the stated strength. This will have a HUGE difference when it comes time to use it.

Austin >Food & Dining > Rio's Brazilian Cafe

Neighborhoods: Govalle - Johnston Terrace, Govalle
A hidden delight on the east side, serving seriously addictive cheese bread ("pão de queijo") in what appears to be a colorful, renovated little house. Excellent place to bring a handful of your friends for family-style eats and drinks.
A gluten free dream! The most amazing GF cheese bread and pastries! Great environment for drinks, dinner or snacks.
Very cool place..food is really tasteful plus affordable.
Atmosphere also relaxed...cool place :)
Who Knew? – I found this place online when I was looking for a lunch place east of town to meet my friend who works in the Eastern Boondocks of Austin.
Overall, we were very pleased with the experience. We ordered the bread trio (STANDOUT YUMMO), the Spinach & Ricotta Pastel which had a nice, delicate lemon flavor (much more cheesy than spinachy), and the Apple Buzlos w/ chicken which was disappointing because it had an overpowering floral flavor (was it lavender in the dressing? - I couldn't pinpoint it). That said, we split the Apple Buzlo & it was a very ample portion.
The inside of the building is in better shape than the outside, clean & funky. Restroom was very clean.
Service was good. They really cook here, so this is not a place to come if you're in a hurry.
I didn't know my friend was avoiding gluten, so their GF indicators on the menu & many gluten-free options were a nice plus.
I'd definitely try this place again. Happy ending: Our 3 food items & 2 teas were $22.

What is January term?
The January Term immerses students and faculty in intensive educational experiences that are deliberately innovative and experiential with the explicit goals of encouraging self-motivated independent learning and the ability to understand issues and concepts in action.
How many credits can I earn?
All January term experiences are credit-bearing. Students earn 1-4 credits with the following approximate workload expectations for total time spent per week (including homework): 1 credit = 13.5, 2 credits = 27 hours, 3 credits = 40 hours, 4 credits = 53.5 hours. All experiences generate credits that count toward the 128 required for graduation, but only graded experiences may count towards a major or minor.
What kind of experiences are included?
Internships, Service Learning, Independent Projects, Group Projects, Seminars, and Study Away.
What about the cost?
Tuition for all experiences other than the posted study abroad/away experiences will cost $500; this is a flat fee for internships, independent and group projects, on-campus seminars, or other experiences – regardless of the number of credits. Students participating in a one credit experience and who apply for a January Term Grant will receive a grant award. For on campus room and board policies and fees, see the housing and food section. Study away experiences (domestic and international) incur fees as specified in the experience descriptions. Some include airfare, but some do not.
What about financial aid?
Students cannot use their semester financial aid to defray costs, but may apply for special grants that will help pay for the experience. See "January Term Grants" section. Students participating in a one credit experience and who apply for a January Term Grant will receive a grant award.
What about Early College?
Early College students at Guilford have the option to participate in January Term opportunities, with the decision concerning participation and payment of tuition/fees made by students and parent/guardians. Families/students who choose to participate will work directly with Guilford College to register for January Term. Any credits earned during the January Term will be included on the respective student's Guilford College transcript, not the Early College at Guilford high school transcript.
What if I am not a Guilford student?
Participation is open to anyone who applies to become and is accepted as a visiting student. Send a completed visiting student application to the registrar. Priority is given to current students.
What about housing and food costs?
Traditional students who already live on campus and participate in experiences that take place on campus for any time are required to live in their semester housing without an additional housing fee, but must purchase one of several meal plan options. Those meals plans are: 60 meals for $335, 52 meals for $298, 42 meals for $247, 30 meals for $180, 15 meals for $88 (available only to those on campus for 11 days or less). Residence halls are open only to J-term participants. Students will not receive campus housing for January Term only. See housing and board policies and procedures on the Residential Life Intranet page.
How do deposits work?
There are no deposits required for on campus experiences. However, study away (international and domestic) both require a deposit at the time of application. See descriptions for amounts. Deposits become non-refundable upon acceptance to the program and are payable to Guilford College by check or credit card. The amount of the deposit is credited to the final bill.
What is the policy on costs refunds?
Refund policies vary from experience to experience with a short window for withdrawal that often closes long before the start of the experience. Students who withdraw after that period will be charged from between 25% -100% of the cost. For refund schedules of study away/abroad, see the study abroad web site and partner web sites. On campus experience costs are fully refundable until the last day to drop without a grade.
What is a January term grant?
It is a modest amount of money granted as a tuition discount at an average range of 10-15%, for which students must apply. Awards are competitive, limited, and based on demonstrated need. Students participating in a one credit experience and who apply for a January Term Grant will receive a grant award. Applications available online at the January term web site. Completed applications must be e-mailed to Jeff Favolise (firstname.lastname@example.com) by the last day before Fall break.

In a distant room the "controlled chaos" ensues. Two chairs behind the anchor desk are taken as the lights cast a glare off perspiring foreheads. Meanwhile, a set of large headphones cover the ears of an engineer peering occasionally down to her fingers to get the opening credits rolling.
A collective deep breath consumes the room... "Good afternoon Cougars!"
In an instant, the closing slideshow and musical accompaniment fade as the news-producing students begin to exit the production room and head to their next class. A few stragglers stay behind, critiquing minute details that need adjustment, reflecting on the day's performance before flashing a smile to their instructor and exiting.
"I overheard one of my students say I had no idea high school could be this much fun," video production teacher Mike Bowers said. "This definitely offers students the non-traditional class setting and is far from lecture."
Bowers is one of several teachers inside the C3 Media Academy at Spanish Springs, an elite course study for students seeking professional development in the fields of web design, video production, journalism and photography. The academy is in its first year at the school, hosting mostly freshmen and sophomores in its classes, and has undergone major development since opening in the general schedule.
"We have been working like crazy for the last year just to get it open and now we are starting to see results," media teacher Brett Weible said. "The kids are buying in and are excited about it and really asking questions about graduation and asking what to expect in their senior year (of high school) and they are only freshmen."
Spanish Springs High School is one of many Washoe County School District schools containing a Signature Academy, an initiative of the school district to prepare students for college and careers through narrowly focused programs. Bowers said his students, many of whom help produce the Cougar News Network, are able to apply skills they learn in the classroom to real-life situations.
"There is sort of an impasse in education right now where kids are learning theoretical things and they are not really applying the knowledge that they are gaining," Bowers said. "I see the academy as an application to their learning. What they do is very project-based and putting the tasks they learn on the computer into action immediately."
Nita Losoponkul, director of the Signature Academies for WCSD, said the district works directly with employers in the fields being targeted within the academies, ensuring students are learning job-qualifying material. She said of the nine Signature Academies currently open in the district, seven of them are in their first year and have great opportunities for expansion.
"The business leaders and partners give us guidance and tell students and teachers what new hires lack and a teacher can look to incorporating that into their curriculum," she said. "Students can make themselves more marketable to potential businesses and employers, we have guests speakers to offer more perspective and they also mentor students to see if it is the right career for them."
Losoponkul said a unique feature of the Signature Academies is allowing students the option to attend a non-designated school if an academy offers them a subject of interest. She said any high school student in Washoe County, including home schooling, has the opportunity to apply for and attend a Signature Academy.
"A lot of students have the perception that these programs are only for the best and brightest, but we want to serve as many Washoe County students as we can. If they're not a great student but they're interested, we encourage them to apply," Losoponkul said. "What we are looking at most is a student's interest and it's demonstrated in the paragraph for the applications and recommendations they receive from their teachers. If they are working hard and on time in their requirements for graduation, they will have good recommendations."
Currently Reed High School hosts two Signature Academies, including the Health Occupation Preparatory Education (H.O.P.E.) and the Success Through Applied Relevant Studies (S.T.A.R.S) career academies. Sparks High School is home to the Microsoft IT Academy.
In a presentation delivered to the Sparks City Council in December, WCSD Superintendent Pedro Martinez said the Signature Academies will be making major strides in curriculum.
"Starting next fall, every single one of our high schools will have a Signature Academy and at the end of this year, every one of our high schools will have an agreement with UNR and TMCC to have the curriculum mapped out," he said, "And they will know what their classes are from 9th grade through 12th grade. In 12th grade they will be taking classes on campus at UNR or TMCC."
The accomplishment of putting a Signature Academy in every high school comes as Galena and North Valleys high schools open the Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (S.T.E.M.) academy and the Research Academy, respectively. Ron Geyer, chair of the Science Department at North Valleys, said getting students in the Research Academy will be receiving a far different education from a traditional classroom.
"I think what we want is to give those students the ability to be independent learners at some level. We are going to be supporting them in every way we can and they are going to have to be goal-oriented students. The potential is remarkable," Geyer said.
North Valleys tested the Research Academy program this year in order to prepare for its opening in 2013. The program used small class sizes of motivated students who were able to research any topic of their choosing. Geyer said the topics ranged from history to art to English and there was no limit to what students could do.
"It is nice to have time out of my day to use for my own purposes and research something that really interests me," said Baleigh McCuskey, a sophomore in the Research Academy. "I think there is a lot of students who would like to research something they are interested in and it makes the classes that much more enjoyable."
McCuskey, an avid softball player, said her final project will be comprised of a bionic knee used to demonstrate the strain put on a catcher's knee while playing.
Information about the Signature Academies can be found at the WCSD website or individual school websites. Martinez said the district is pushing to spread the word about the numerous options offered around the district and the value of attending any one of the academies.
"I am a big believer that today's children are learning very differently than they have in the past. Children will be able to apply to these academies from wherever they live and so for me, in order to keep costs low, we have to have them everywhere," Martinez said. "We want the parents of these children to know that when they enter some of these programs, they have a ticket into the higher education program they choose."

When it comes to the public outcry over executive compensation, the sounds of protest may have faded but the fury lives on. Bands of placard-carrying citizens have disappeared from lower Manhattan, but efforts to rein in what many perceive as outrageous paydays are, if anything, intensifying. From Capitol Hill to boardrooms across the country, efforts are under way to restrict the compensation of executives of all publicly traded companies, even those far removed from any form of bailout.
"People have been excoriating executive-pay practices for decades, and this is their 'pitchfork' moment, with mobs literally taking to the streets to protest the bonuses at AIG, Merrill Lynch, and other firms," says Ira Kay, director of executive compensation consulting at Watson Wyatt.
Already the repercussions are being felt far and wide, from Silicon Valley, where Apple shareholders pushed through a "say-on-pay" proposal despite board members advocating for its rejection, to The Netherlands, where the CEO of ING made a "moral appeal" to executives to return their recent bonuses. A Watson Wyatt survey found that nearly two-thirds of board members believe companies need to change their executive compensation plans in response to current political and market pressures.
A Volatile Mix
It is political pressure in particular that has many observers, not to mention CFOs, seeing red. Soon Congress is expected to unveil a slate of executive pay legislation that could extend the government's recent rules for companies receiving federal dollars from the Troubled Asset Relief Program to other publicly traded companies. "The sad thing about AIG and the TARP regulations on executive pay is that successful, careful companies will be painted with the same broad brush, affecting their ability to compete in the global marketplace," says Jeffrey A. Burchill, senior vice president and CFO of FM Global, a large business-property insurer.
If the remarks coming from the two primary movers in Congress — House Financial Services Committee chairman Barney Frank (D–Mass.) and Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Committee chairman Christopher Dodd (D–Conn.) — are any indication, companies can expect substantive changes, although the full scope is anyone's guess. "Specific caps on compensation are not very likely," says Alexander Cwirko-Godycki, research manager at compensation benchmarking firm Equilar Inc., "but there is definite momentum behind say-on-pay provisions, mandates for wider clawback policies, and increased compensation disclosure requirements, among others." It remains to be seen which of these, if any, will become law, but in Cwirko-Godycki's view, "there has certainly never been a stronger case for these proposals to become reality."
"Situations of excessive pay are not rampant," says Brent Longnecker, chairman and CEO of Longnecker & Associates, a Houston-based compensation consultancy. "Only about 2% of companies have rewarded failure, but the government is keen to do something to appease the public's outrage." He is not alone in this view. "Nobody knows what the rules will be or how the Treasury Department will write the regulations, but they're coming," says Patrick McGurn, special counsel to the institutional shareholders services unit of RiskMetrics.

According to Auburn head coach Gus Malzahn, the junior running back was far from being in optimum condition.
"We didn't make a big deal of it, but he was banged up," Malzahn said Wednesday. "He wasn't anywhere close to 100 percent, so that had something to do with it."
This came three days after offensive coordinator Rhett Lashlee said Grant's ankle may not have been in perfect shape, but it was good enough to play on.
"The kid was pretty healthy," Lashlee said. "He had a little bit of a tweaked ankle, but he was 100 percent in our book and ready to go."
The Opelika native carried just two times, finishing with 9 yards.
DENSON OUT: Auburn knows it won't have Jaylon Denson for the rest of the year. The junior receiver underwent season-ending surgery to repair a torn patellar tendon in his left knee Tuesday.
Malzahn didn't down play the loss, acknowledging it took away a key piece of the Tigers' offense.
"That was a pretty tough injury," he said. "That's a big blow for our offense. He was our most consistent guy, so it's going to have to be by-committee from here on out. It's good that we have an off week that we can start working some guys."
Two players Malzahn mentioned as candidates to fill Denson's role in the "5 position" were Brandon Fulse and Melvin Ray.
"We've kind of mixed and matched this week — two or three guys," he said. "We've got some guys who can play multiple positions, especially the guys who have been here before."
WHITAKER UPDATE: Jeff Whitaker hasn't played a snap this season. The senior defensive tackle has missed Auburn's first four games after having surgery on his right knee before the season opener against Washington State on Aug. 31.
Malzahn was asked about Whitaker's status Wednesday, and said a decision should be coming soon.
"We'll probably, in the near future, talk through that," Malzahn said. "At this point, things are still up in the air."
Jonathan Jones hasn't played this year, either. The sophomore defensive back broke his right ankle on wet steps just before the end of preseason camp. Malzahn declined to shed light on his condition, instead focusing on the team's injury situation as a whole.
"This has been a week that everybody that's banged up, we're just trying to get healed up," he said. "As we get into next week, we'll have more answers about everyone."

text: Buffalo, NY (WBEN) The successful capture of the Boston Bombing suspect did not come without a price. An MIT Police Officer was killed in an ambush, and investigators worked round the clock. A former FBI supervisor says such a case can take a toll on law enforcement. John Culhane with Hilbert College's criminal justice department says police working 12 hour days or more can deplete resources. "It depends on the number of people you have," says Culhane. "You want to keep some in reserve and rotate them in and out if you can, but the longer the shifts, the more depleted your personnel has become." Culhane says the other physical toll is all the adrenaline officers are running on during such a case. "The adrenaline happens every time you turn a corner, and it repeats itself every time. The stress will eventually take its toll on anybody," explains Culhane. There's also an emotional toll, especially when police lose one of their own in the line of duty. "You'll want to debrief, make sure everyone's ok, share your experiences," says Culhane. "Good management will make sure employee assistance programs are available to people who need it and have counselors on hand for those who need it."

Hi all,
I know it is late in the season to ask for these. I recently lost my bees to SHB and wax moths. We moved from SE Virginia to my in-laws in Giles County, VA (in the mountains) and had to leave the hives for 3 1/2weeks until I found a place to relocate the hives. Long story short I lost the two hives I had, all the drawn comb etc.
Does anyone have two nucs for sale near SW Virginia?
Thank you,
Brent Strange

I am wondering if anyone has used the new ridgid pex crimp tools? They apparently are lighter, require less force to use, and are shorter than most or the others on the market. I have a full set, but my 1" crimper is almost 2Ft long! It would be great to get the ridgid 1" crimper since it would fit into my tool box nicely, but i am worried that it might be harder to use than my current one. I haven't actually used it yet, but the 2Ft long handle should give some great leverage.
Anybody got anything good or bad to say about the ridgid crimpers?

The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill was the nation's first state university to open its doors and the only public university to award degrees in the 18th century. Recent national rankings include the following:
1st among the 100 best U.S. public colleges and universities that offer the best combination of top-flight academics and affordable costs as ranked by Kiplinger's Personal Finance magazine in December 2008. 1st for 8 consecutive times since Kiplinger's began these periodic surveys in 1998. Kiplinger's analysis stressed academic quality, as well as cost and financial aid offerings.
5th best public university in U.S. News & World Report's 2009 "Best Colleges" guidebook for the 8th consecutive year. 1st among public campuses for the 4th consecutive year; 9th overall in "Great Schools, Great Prices," based on academic quality and the net cost of attendance for a student who received the average level of need-based financial aid.
Carolina offers bachelor's, master's, doctoral and professional degrees in academic areas critical to North Carolina's future: business, dentistry, education, law, medicine, nursing, public health and social work, among others. Offerings include 78 bachelor's, 107 master's, 75 doctorate and four professional degree programs through 14 schools and the College of Arts and Sciences.
Students learn from a 3,200-member faculty that includes Oliver Smithies, Excellence Professor of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, who received the 2007 Nobel Prize for work that has fundamentally changed the science of genetic medicine and potentially will help millions of people live healthier lives. Smithies was chosen for his role in introducing gene modifications in mice using embryonic stem cells. Today, scientists around the world use these techniques to produce mice that model heart disease, Alzheimer's, diabetes and cancer.
The faculty attracted more than $678.2 million in total contract and grant funding in fiscal 2008—more than twice the amount the University attracted decade ago. That's up from $610 million last year. Awards from the National Institutes of Health exceeded $356 million in fiscal 2008—up more than 13 percent from last year.
Carolina offers talented students the opportunity to learn in a high-quality academic environment. Through the Carolina Covenant and an excellent overall financial aid program, the University is making college possible for qualified students regardless of their financial means. The University's policies and practices protect affordability, a core value at Carolina that has long benefited the state.
In fall 2008, Carolina enrolled 3,900 first-year students—from a record 21,511 applications. It marked the third straight record year for applications and a five-year increase of 20 percent. More than 79 percent of the entering students were in the top 10 percent of their high school class and nearly 43 percent were among the top 10 students. Average SAT score was 1301. Over the past five years, the quality of the entering class—based on the percentage of students graduating in the top 10 percent of their high school class—has improved more than at all but two of the top 30 national universities.
