Public Meeting on Higher Education Study to be Hosted at Spartanburg Community College
Spartanburg, S.C. – The public is invited to give comments and recommendations for a statewide action plan for higher education at a Public Meeting on Tuesday, November 18, at 4:00 p.m. in the Tracey Gaines Auditorium on the Spartanburg Community College central campus. A synopsis of the draft report will be presented followed by a 40-minute question and answer session.
In 2007, the General Assembly appointed a higher education study committee to make recommendations for a statewide higher education strategic plan. The committee has developed an Action Plan Framework centered on four goals: making South Carolina one of the most educated states, increasing research and innovation, making South Carolina a leader in workforce training and educational services, and realizing South Carolina’s potential: resources and effectiveness.
The study committee is seeking public input on their recommendations prior to releasing a full report to the General Assembly in December.
Similar meetings are also being held in Aiken, Anderson, Beaufort, Charleston, Columbia, Conway, Florence, Orangeburg and Rock Hill.
