Extractions: For Release June 25 Regents Approve Reinvestment Through Efficiencies Spending Plans and Articulation Policy with Technical Institutes ABERDEEN, SD-Meeting today on the campus of Northern State University, the Board of Regents approved the proposed spending plans for the Reinvestment Through Efficiencies Plan. Reinvestment Through Efficiencies was initiated in 1995 to enhance efficiency and improve service delivery in the public university system. A major part of the plan is to invest in new technology to improve and expand the educational opportunities available to people across the state. Regents President David R. Gienapp said, "These plans demonstrate clear objectives for investing in the future of higher education opportunities in South Dakota. All of the Reinvestment dollars will go to improving service and bringing education to more people". Executive Director Robert T. Tad Perry explained that, "The public higher education system is reinvesting over $10 million in FY98 to improve efficiency and service". He said that, of the resources available, 35% will be used to support Centers of Excellence and an additional 38% will be spent on technology infrastructure and redesign of the university curriculum. Nearly 13% is being spent on activities that change how universities conduct their business, such as centralized enrollment management services. Perry added, "These are significant investments in the quality of South Dakota's public higher education".
Extractions: BACKGROUND South Dakotaâs efforts to improve rural health care date to the early 1970s, encompassing training opportunities for both physicians and mid-level practitioners, a tuition reimbursement program, and a scholarship program for medical students who agree to practice in underserved areas. Nevertheless, while the number of physicians in the state has been rising, the number of practice sites continues to fall. Rural communities lack the population base to support group practice arrangements, and reimbursement rates in those areas are not uncompetitive. In the 1980s, the number of Health Professional Shortage Areas (HPSAs) increased from 29 to 45. In 1993, four counties had no primary health care provider and 12 others had only a single mid-level practitioner. HPSAs tended to have larger elderly populations and much higher poverty rates. Native Americans, who have higher-than-average infant and adult mortality rates, are disproportionately represented in HPSAs.

Masters Of Arts In Education distance graduate program meets licensure requirements for school library mediaspecialists in Minnesota, Wisconsin, and North and south dakota. http://www.css.edu/depts/grad/Education/
Extractions: The masters degree program in Educational Media and Technology is designed to meet the needs of licensed teachers who wish to add the School Library Media Specialist license to their existing teaching license and obtain a masters degree at the same time. Students without a teaching license may enroll in the program also, but completion of the masters degree will not give them the license as well. See Students Without a Teaching License. The field of Educational Media and Technology is rapidly changing as new and emerging technologies affect the way that information is gathered, stored, retrieved, and utilized. Libraries and media centers are no longer print storage facilities, but are becoming access points to the larger and more complex world of digital resources. As such, they are society's window on the future where integration and use of all information resources will be the key to success. Program Description Goals of the Program Media Specialist Licensure Transfer Credit The Educational Media and Technology Program seeks to meet the needs of people working in rapidly changing school library/media and technology settings. It meets the Minnesota Board of Teaching outcomes for the school library media specialist licensure endorsement. The program is designed to be conveniently available to working professionals via an online format. The online format is available only to graduate students. The courses at the graduate level are no longer being offered on campus. This distance graduate program meets licensure requirements for school library media specialists in Minnesota, Wisconsin, and North and South Dakota. We are currently working with Iowa to obtain their approval as well.
