Campus News Murray State recognized nationally as a "hidden treasure" Posted on Aug 7, 2002
Murray State University was one of only six public universities in America to make the prestigious “Hidden Treasure” list, just published by Kaplan Inc. of Riverside, N.J. Survey results were announced in "Kaplan’s 2003 Most Interesting Colleges" guidebook for students and parents. According to Trent Anderson, vice president for publishing and e-ventures at Kaplan, the “treasure” ranking was based on academic quality, student environment (including diversity), enrollment growth and affordability.
“Want to find out what students at a certain college are doing on Saturday nights? We asked students and recent graduates for the inside scoop,” said Anderson. “Want to know where you’ll get the best education for your tuition dollar? We asked high school guidance counselors to tell us.
“It’s our firm belief that there’s a ‘perfect’ college out there for each and every student,” he contended, “Our study will help you figure out exactly what you want in a college and determine which schools are right for you.
“Why ‘most interesting’ colleges and universities? Because profiling colleges based only on selectivity as many other college guides do leaves you with a fairly homogenous group of schools and excludes schools that might have something unique to offer,” Anderson explained. “So, what makes a college interesting? Unique programs and academic strengths are obvious criteria. In some cases being a ‘hidden treasure’ can be an attraction as an alternative to a high-profile school. The student body can make a school interesting, especially if it draws a diverse population. And then there’s the ‘buzz factor’ schools that guidance counselors are always talking about. Our choices are influenced by the inside information we collect from guidance counselors and students, by institutional data such as enrollment figures and selectivity, and by current events at each college (things changing for the better or for the worse).”

Breaking Barriers, Building Democracy: A Call to Establish Political Inclusion and Equality The 2000 presidential election and the events since September 11 have raised many questions and concerns about the state of our democracy. Many recognize that democracy in the United States and other countries has always been more of an ideal than a reality. The connections between our democracy's failures and persistent inequalities are hard to dispute. The goal of this conference is to begin working toward breaking the barriers and building solutions that will someday result in full civic participation for all. Keynote Speakers: Peter B. Edelman

Campus News Education at MSU nationally recognized as a best value Posted on Sep 12, 2002
Murray State University, consistently ranked among the nation’s best public universities, was singled-out as a “best value” again today — this time by “Kiplinger’s Personal Finance“ magazine. MSU ranked among the top nine public universities in the nation for quality education with affordable out-of-state rates. Murray ranked 40th in the nation for overall academic quality and affordable tuition. The University of Kentucky, rated 79th, was the commonwealth’s only other public university to be ranked in Kiplinger’s “100 Best Public Colleges Across the Country” list.
Located two blocks from the White House, the Kiplinger organization bills itself as one of America’s most respected business and personal finance publishers.
“Our survey, covering more than 500 U.S. public colleges and universities, revealed great schools with reasonable price tags,” wrote editor Brian P. Knestout. “It shows that you don’t have to break the bank to get a great college education.”
Dr. F. King Alexander, Murray’s president in an enrollment-record year (topping 10,000 for the first time ever), is noticeably pleased with the Kiplinger survey results. “Recently, our university has been fortunate to receive many national accolades highlighting our commitment to high quality, affordable higher education opportunities. The Kiplinger recognition coincides with the recent release of the Kaplan Inc. college guide which honors Murray State as among only six public universities in the United States to be selected as a

Legislative Agenda Pull Down for Agenda Education Reform State Gov. Reorganization Medical Malpractice Economic Development Corrections
Jan. 14, 2003
Dear Legislator: Once more, we've gathered at the state Capitol to discuss the future of our state. When we leave here in several months, I'm hopeful we'll be able to say we made Arkansas a better place. Despite the differences we're sure to have on some of the details, I'm convinced we want the same thing. And that's for Arkansas to be an even greater state for ourselves, our children and our grandchildren. For those of you who are legislative veterans, welcome back for another general session. Congratulations on having been returned to office by the voters in your districts. I look forward to working with you again. For the large number of you who are freshmen, welcome. You'll find that a legislative session is an amazing process as Arkansans from all parts of the state and all walks of life gather to determine what should be the priorities of state government. In the hectic weeks to come, I hope none of us lose sight of why we're here. No one denies that we face tremendous challenges. Like virtually every other state in the country, we find that the demands on state government from the taxpayers, the courts and Congress have outstripped the revenue sources available to us. We'll have to make tough choices when it comes to crafting a budget for the next biennium.
