Just commiserating, I've heard rumors that they are discontinuing CU Succeeds at our local high school and that they are having an issue with the teacher's union about getting a professor from CO School of Mines to teach some high school math -- apparently, the prof is not accredited to teach high school so that some how runs afoul of the union?
From what I'm hearing the real issue is money. As you know, the higher ed folks have been getting almost nothing from the state, seeing most of the education dollars going to K-12.. They are unwilling to lend out their profs and give college credit to the high school people for less than what the university charges per credit hour. Of course the school district doesn't want to pay that much. Meanwhile the kids don't get what they need.
