State college pilot keeps growing
The list keeps getting longer.
The House today will take up an amended version of the "State College System" bill that would come fall 2008 allow eight community colleges to offer four-year bachelor's degrees as part of a pilot project aimed at improving access to higher degrees. The original proposal (SB1716) had only three institutions including St. Petersburg College in the pilot.
The proposal to be considered this afternoon includes Chipola College, Daytona Beach College, Indian River College, Miami Dade College, Okaloosa-Walton College, Polk College, Santa Fe College, and St. Petersburg College.
