Here's a story of a person who felt 3 years would be too long and got a bachelor's degree in 3 semesters. Now that's focus.

Cutting College costs
I read an AASA Daily News article this morning that described a program at Hartwick College in Oneonta, NY which allowed students to graduate in three years. Of course, the program isn't for everyone - students must take 18 credits per semester as well as a four-credit interim term in January. Summers are free, however for internships or jobs. Other institutions have developed programs as well, but the interest has not been great. Maybe some of that has to do with the discipline and focus necessary to carry that load for the entire time.

Dave-checked your website and blog as I'm impressed!I'm not seeing too many WY school district sites that have this option.As I think about the July 22 board agenda,I'm wondering what you would think about time devoted to district-level websites and ways for community members(all stakeholders),to have a voice.Maybe invite Mark Stock to explain more?
