National Student Exchange at California University of Pennsylvania Cal U NSE Home Prospective Students Participating Universities Contact Cal U NSE ... Interational Studies The National Student Exchange Program at Cal U The National Student Exchange (NSE) provides Cal U students with the opportunity to broaden their educational experience by attending college at various campuses across the country for the cost of in-state tuition. Students can choose to stay one semester of one academic year at the campus of their choice. Locations are as widely located as Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and Guam. A student may attend any one of the participating institutions for in-state tuition cost. These students can access courses and programs that are not available on their home campus; however, education is not the only benefit. Students can grow both culturally and socially. It was once considered trendy for students to interrupt their education while they traveled, but the NSE allows students the opportunity for adventure while they continue their education. This experience is an asset to a participating student as a professional and as a person. Employers look at resumes every day; this unique experience makes you stand out in the crowd.

site index ED.gov View Quarterly by This Issue Volume and Issue Topics Vol 2, Issue 3, Topic: Elementary and Secondary Education High School Dropouts, by Race/Ethnicity and Recency of Migration This article was originally published as an Indicator of the Month, taken from The Condition of Education: 1999 . The sample survey data are from the U.S. Census Bureau's Current Population Survey (CPS). As a whole, Hispanics drop out of high school at higher rates and attain lower levels of education than non-Hispanics. The relative recency of migration among Hispanics may at least partially account for this trend. Evidence of the undereducation of Hispanics has implications for developing retention strategies as well as for assessing the educational and training needs of the population. The status dropout rate for an age group (the percentage of that age group that is not enrolled in school and has not completed high school) is one measure of dropping out. In 1997, a greater percentage of Hispanics than non-Hispanics ages 16-24 were born outside the United States (

87. Impact Of Primary Laws On Adult Use Of Safety Belts --- United States, 2002 belt use among us states and territories with and all 50 states, DC, Guam, puerto rico, and the survey of the noninstitutionalized, civilian us population aged http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/mm5312a2.htm

Impact of Primary Laws on Adult Use of Safety Belts - United States, 2002 Motor-vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death among persons aged 134 years in the United States ( ). Safety belts are the single most effective means of reducing crash-related deaths ( ). State laws have had a critical role in increasing belt use. As of December 2003, the District of Columbia (DC), 20 states, and three U.S. territories* had primary laws (i.e., primary enforcement safety-belt laws), which allow police to stop a motorist and issue a citation solely for being unbelted. Another 29 states had secondary laws, which allow police to issue a safety-belt citation only after stopping a motorist for a different violation. Primary laws are more effective than secondary laws for increasing safety-belt use and reducing traffic fatalities ( ). To assess safety-belt use among U.S. states and territories with and without primary laws, CDC analyzed data from the 2002 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) survey. This report summarizes the results of that analysis, which indicated that the prevalence of self-reported safety-belt use was higher among states with primary laws (85.3%) than among states with secondary laws (74.4%). To reduce deaths from motor-vehicle crashes, states should consider enactment of primary laws. In 2002, all 50 states, DC, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands (USVI) participated in BRFSS, a state-based, random-digitdialed telephone survey of the noninstitutionalized, civilian U.S. population aged

Castro, M.D. Marguerite Pappaioanou, D.V.M., Ph.D. AIDS Program, Center for Infectious Diseases INTRODUCTION Of the 66,464 cases of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) reported to CDC in the period June 1, 1981-July 4, 1988, most (60%) occurred among non- Hispanic whites; however, blacks and Hispanics accounted for 70% of the cases in heterosexual men, 70% of those in women, and 75% of those in children. To study the association between AIDS and racial/ethnic groups, the AIDS Program, Center for Infectious Diseases, analyzed the presumed means by which each patient became infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) (i.e., his or her exposure category). METHODS CDC receives AIDS case reports from the health departments of all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and U.S. territories. This analysis included only cases meeting the CDC case definition (1). Thirty-six cases in U.S. territories other than Puerto Rico were excluded because of small numbers. The distribution of cases by racial/ethnic group and exposure category were analyzed. The racial/ethnic groups consisted of Hispanics and the following groups of non-Hispanics: whites, blacks, Asians and Pacific Islanders (Asians/PIs), and American Indians and Alaskan Natives (American Indians/ANs). AIDS patients residing in Puerto Rico (97% Hispanic) were studied separately from other Hispanics. Except for the combination of intravenous-drug abuse (IVDA) in homosexual/bisexual men, the exposure categories were hierarchically ordered so that persons with more than one possible means of acquiring HIV infection were classified only in the category listed first.

Text Word 97 August 3, 2000 Separate Statement of Commissioner Gloria Tristani Re: Inquiry Concerning the Deployment of Advanced Telecommunications Capability to All Americans in a Reasonable and Timely Fashion, and Possible Steps To Accelerate Such Deployment Pursuant to Section 706 of the Telecommunications Act of 1996. CC Docket No. 98-146 I guardedly concur with today's Report. While the Report concludes that certain populations are "particularly vulnerable to not receiving advanced services in a timely fashion," it does not sufficiently state the at risk status of these populations. Moreover, in order to comply with our statutory mandate to "determine whether advanced telecommunications capability is being deployed to all Americans in a reasonable and timely fashion," we must have a better picture of the deployment of advanced services than the existing data afford. I am troubled about the factors and data that suggest certain populations - those living in rural areas, the U.S. territories, inner cites, and tribal areas, as well as low income consumers and minorities are at heightened risk of not having access to advanced services if left to market forces alone. As the Report indicates, the data show a correlation between population density and the presence of broadband subscribers, with areas of low population density much less likely to have subscribers to broadband services. Thus, rural consumers and those on Indian lands outside of population centers are particularly at risk. Other factors, such as the limitations of particular technologies, further increase this risk. Moreover, the correlation between income and advanced services indicates that low-income consumers are likewise at risk of not having access to broadband services, a risk heightened by other factors including the poor quality existing plant in inner cities.

South Florida All U.S. Coral Reefs Face Human Threats September 30, 2002 Release from: ENS SILVER SPRING, Maryland - Every U.S. coral reef system is suffering from both human and natural disturbances, warns a new report from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. The first national assessment of the condition of U.S. coral reefs links development, pollution and destructive fishing practices with the decline of reefs in U.S. waters and around the globe. The 265 page report, "The State of Coral Reef Ecosystems of the United States and Pacific Freely Associated States," identifies the pressures that pose increasing risks to the nation's estimated 7,607 square miles of coral reefs, particularly in hot spots located near population centers. The report also assesses the health of reef resources, ranks threats in 13 geographic areas, and details ongoing efforts to mitigate damage to coral reefs. Craig Manson, the Interior Department's assistant secretary for fish and wildlife and parks, called the study "an important first report card on the health of U.S. reefs. It's a valuable tool for raising public awareness about the global decline of these unique treasures." Raising public awareness and stimulating official action on coral reefs is crucial, the report's authors say, because an estimated 27 percent of the world's shallow water coral reefs may already be beyond recovery. An estimated 66 percent are now considered to be severely degraded. Thirty-eight coral reef experts and 79 expert contributors collaborated on the report, led by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) Ocean Service. They found that while some U.S. reefs are in good to excellent health, all are already at risk from human activities.
