Here is an eye opening interview with Chancellor Cavanaugh and Pres. Grunenwald. It reveals some important facets of the PASSHE mission that may not actually be form part of PASSHE's "official" mission statement:
Interview with Cavanaugh and Grunewald
A few questions that should be made after watching this video segment are:
1. Are Foreign Languages being considered as part of this effort to extend education to communities not previously reached?
2. Has PASSHE considered the viability of teaching Foreign Languages "anytime" and "anywhere"?
3. Will this new delivery method (one that is dependent of Distance Education) sacrifice existing educational quality?
4. Does a significant body of untapped students exist to substantiate the development or modification of language programs already in existence?
5. What is the cost of making these programmatic modifications (modifying the system for this delivery method)?
6. How will these modifications affect programs already in existence (BSE, for example)?
7. What are community colleges already doing in this area?
8. Will it be profitable or how long will it be profitable to compete for this traditional community college market?
