Event Description

The Higher Education Reauthorization Act is to be reauthorized every five years. Finally, after eight years of deliberation, changes in control of Congress and final agreement, it was passed as The Higher Education Opportunity Act in July. Since then it has gone through several public comment periods and as we wait for final guidelines on the provisions, we will have the opportunity to talk about provisions impacting student affairs and implementation dates.

The program will provide an overview of key provisions impacting student affairs day to day work and discuss probable although not final regulations. While the entire bill has close to 450 new reporting requirements, we will focus on fire safety, missing students, and emergency notification systems. You will have an opportunity to ask questions and share any successes in implementing similar policies on your campuses as some of you may have addressed these issues before they became federal regulations.

Learning Outcomes:

1) Participants will have the opportunity to learn the process over the past eight years of getting to a final bill on the Higher Education Reauthorization Amendments.

2) Participants will have the opportunity to learn and discuss key provisions affecting student affairs professionals, fire safety regulations, missing student regulations and emergency notification regulations.

3) Implementation dates and good faith effort in implementation will be discussed on key provisions.
