Tribal Colleges: An Introduction

Tribal Colleges were created over the last 30 years in response to the higher education needs of American Indians, and generally serve geographically isolated populations that have no other means of accessing education beyond the high school level. They have become increasingly essential to educational opportunity for American Indian students, a status they have achieved in a relatively brief period of time. Tribal Colleges are unique institutions that combine personal attention with cultural relevance, in such a way as to encourage American Indians—especially those living on reservations—to overcome the barriers in higher education

The retreat from widening participation? : the National Scholarship Programme and new access agreements in English higher education

This article critically analyses the impact of reforms to the student financial support system in English higher education. Comparative analysis of financial support mechanisms and patterns of outreach engagement with groups underrepresented in higher education show a marked deterioration in the levels of cash support available and an increasingly focus on the brightest poor students (in the form of merit aid) at the expense of the generality of poorer students since the new support programme came into place. This can be seen as part of a wider policy shift away from generic widening participation to the targeting of specific cohorts to raise the attainment level of intakes or to meet recruitment shortfalls. The findings are located in a context of a (near) trebling of tuition fees, stagnation in overall student numbers and the promotion of market mechanisms, all of which can be seen as a challenge to the notion of social justice through the higher education system

Environmental Consciouness in Japan on Materials and Products -Analysis of Eco-MCPS, a Web-database for Ecomaterials

Eco-MCPS database is a web-based database system that contains data of environment-conscious materials,components, products, and services. The text data compiled in the Eco-MCPS and the access log data of Eco-MCPS were subjected to data mining. Word-frequency analysis and dependency parsing analysis were applied tothe data to obtain the frequently used terms and their situations of use. By analyzing the access log, the interestof the visitors accessed to the web-site can be understood. The results showed that eco-products\u27 environmental performances are realized by the use of environment-friendly components or materials. The page views, which represent the visitors\u27 interest, were related with the frequently used term in the comments of Eco-MCPS to showthe social consciousness on environment-friendly products. By further analyzing the access log, it was found thatthe word search rank followed the Zipf\u27s Law
