By enabling businesses to remove large swaths of unnecessary inventory, real time information is accelerating productivity growth and raising living standards. This has contributed to the greatest prosperity the world has ever witnessed.” Alan Greenspan in Grand Rapids, Michigan, September 8, 1999 The stature of the Robert H. Smith School of Business has advanced dramatically over the last decade. The MBA program has been recognized by every major rankings publication to be among the top 30 US schools, and is currently ranked 19th in the US by the Financial Times. Most recently, a Wall Street Journal survey of recruiters ranked the program 13; The MBA program is very attractive to potential graduates - it has tripled in size over the last decade while simultaneously enhancing student quality and has been judged by Forbes to be the 4th best value among schools costing less than $90,000 and the #1 best value among the top 25 US schools by the Financial Times ;

The Maryland Educational Media Organization (MEMO) is pleased to recognize the Honorable Sue Hecht, member of the Maryland State House of Delegates, with an Honorary Membership in the organization. During the past two legislative sessions, Delegate Hecht has introduced and supported bills for school library funding. The passage of the bill sponsored by Delegate Hecht to allow the School Library Enhancement Program grant to extend funding to materials for middle and high schools as well as for elementary schools will have a profound impact on the school library media centers of local school systems. In addition, although it did not pass during the last session, the introduction and support of HB 935 by Delegate Hecht, to provide significant new money for school library media programs and her tremendous effort on behalf of its passage were greatly appreciated. Delegate Hecht was not able to join us today. I will relay to her the gratitude of the Maryland Educational Media Organization for her continued support for school library media and her advocacy for the children of Maryland and I will see that she receives this plaque.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE August 16, 1999 Press Contacts Mamie Bittner Eileen Maxwell IMLS Responds to Challenge to Help Children Learn Washington, D.C.-Museums and libraries across the country are welcoming America's students back to school. With increasing frequency, schools and school districts are tapping museums and libraries to help teach and enrich the K-12 curriculum. Some students whose schools link their curricula with nearby museums and libraries are even reporting scoring higher on standardized tests. Launching his annual America Goes Back to School effort, U.S. Secretary of Education Richard W. Riley is calling for greater community involvement in education: " America Goes Back to School is a special time for communities to reaffirm their commitment to learning and education." By providing crucial Federal support (grants and technical assistance) to the nation's museums and libraries to carry out their educational mission, the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) reaffirms its commitment to learning. Museums and libraries are natural partners in education. IMLS recently funded a nationwide survey, "True Needs, True Partners," which found that 88 percent of museums provide K-12 educational programming. Seventy percent have at least one full-time paid staff member who administers K-12 educational programs. Museums report substantial use of school curriculum standards in shaping educational programs for a variety of school subjects. IMLS grants for musuem-school partnerships have involved 82,000 students, 228 schools, and 82 museums.

Prisoners of Time - Schools and Programs Making Time Work - September 1994 Washington County School District Hagerstown, Maryland Computers: a fundamental tool for supporting the instructional program. Maryland's Washington County School District has long been nationally known for its leadership in education. Starting in the 1950s, the district developed a national reputation for curriculum innovation with major support from the Ford Foundation. This reputation continues today as the district breaks new ground in the use of technology for classroom management, assessment, instruction, and administration. "Since 1982 ... computers have become a fundamental tool for supporting the instructional program at all levels," according to the district's instructional technology advisory committee. Springfield Middle School math teacher Dennis Smith uses a commercial instructional management and skills development program, ABACUS, to keep track of the progress of his students on curriculum elements in mathematics and to help prepare them for the Maryland Functional Mathematics Test. He believes the system helps free him of tedious, time-consuming clerical work, helps him pinpoint just what a student needs and how to help him or her, increases the effectiveness of his instructional planning, and helps students prepare for, and practice taking, the state examination. According to his studies, an ABACUS-generated test accurately predicts passage (or failure) of the state competency examination 84 percent of the time.
