Extractions: MISSION The mission of the Mid-Atlantic Equity Consortium (MAEC) is to assist school systems and other educational organizations to create learning environments free of race, gender, class, ethnic and culture biases so that students of all backgrounds will have equal opportunities to flourish. BACKGROUND The Mid-Atlantic Equity Consortium (MAEC) was founded as a private not-for-profit corporation in 1992. Its professional staff consists of educators who are experienced in developing effective school programs to meet the needs of diverse student populations. In 1992, the MAEC successfully competed for an U.S. Department of Education grant to provide Title IV Desegregation Assistance Services to school districts in the mid-Atlantic states. Under this grant, MAEC provides training and other assistance services, free of charge, to school districts in Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania,Virginia, West Virginia and the District of Columbia who are seeking to comply with the non-discrimination requirements of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. A renewal of this grant was awarded to MAEC in 1996. In addition to grants from the U.S. Department of Education (under the Office of Special Programs, the Women's Educational Equity Act, and the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education), the MAEC has received funding for its projects from the District of Columbia Public Schools, the University of Maryland at College Park, and the Maryland Commission on African-American History and Culture.

We are pleased to see proposed regulations requiring a single, statewide accountability system. Also included are guidelines for identifying the students with disabilities who should take alternate assessments. We note that the Department states: it also ensures that only students with the most significant disabilities take those assessments. NASDSE wants to make sure that the term significant is applied fairly and consistently among the districts and states. Additionally, an alternate assessment must be linked or indexed to the single state assessment system in a way that it measures adequate yearly progress to the state standards. This approach would ensure that the alternate assessment measures adequate yearly progress toward the state standards in a statistically valid and reliable fashion.

Extractions: Massive Terminations of Faculty Appointments Introduction The subject of this report is the action taken in February 1997 by the administration of the University of the District of Columbia (UDC) to terminate the appointments of 125 members of the faculty with six weeks of severance salary. The university, the only urban land-grant institution in the country, was founded with a noble mission. It was intended to provide open access to higher education, at affordable levels of tuition, to all high school graduates residing in the District of Columbia. The potential demand was there. When Federal City College opened a decade earlier it had attracted so many applicants that students had to be selected by lottery. The goal of open admissions was retained. By fall 1979, UDC enrolled more than fifteen thousand full- and part-time students, and while that number declined somewhat over the next decade, enrollment seemed to have stabilized by the early 1990s, with roughly twelve thousand students. Dr. Julius F. Nimmons, Jr., was appointed acting president of the university in late November 1996. He replaced Dr. Tilden J. LeMelle, UDC's fifth president (not counting three previous acting presidents), who resigned after serving since 1991. At the time of his appointment, Dr. Nimmons was the university's provost and academic vice president, a position he had held since 1993. In October 1997, Dr. Nimmons named Dr. Beverly Anderson, the dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, as acting provost and vice president for academic affairs, when the acting incumbent, Dr. Samuel Sullivan, resigned his administrative position.

The success of the program led Washington Gas to ask the Public Service Commission of the District of Columbia to remove the program's "pilot" status. The Commission granted that request on February 21, 2001, and the District of Columbia Customer Choice Program has been implemented on a full-scale basis.

Please let us know about law suits based on the No Child Left Behind Act, Title VI, or other related federal law. Federal Equal Protection and Title VI Parent Engagement Education Finance - Equal Protection and Title VI Widespread disparities in education funding exist across the country, and minority students are often disproportionately affected. In 1973, however, in San Antonio School District v. Rodriguez , the United States Supreme Court rejected the plaintiffs' claim that inequities in school funding resulting from dramatic disparities in the local tax base violated the federal Equal Protection Clause, holding that education was not a fundamental right under the federal Constitution. In the years following Rodriguez, a number of plaintiffs have brought claims pursuant to the implementing regulations of Title VI of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, which prohibits government action that has a disparate impact based on race or ethnicity. Some such suits also often include Section 1983 and federal equal protection or due process claims. Plaintiffs generally allege that students in urban areas, who tend to be heavily minority, are treated in an unfair or disadvantageous way under state funding systems. Such claims have been brought in
