UC admits greater number of transfers, out-of-state students for fall 2018
The University of California admitted a higher number of community college transfer students and out-of-state students than previous years for fall 2018, according to early enrollment numbers released Wednesday. UCLA admitted 474 fewer freshmen but 51 more transfer students than last year. Overall, UCLA accepted students from 109 in-state community colleges. The UC faced pressure from Gov. Jerry Brown to increase the number of transfer students to one for every two freshmen. Brown withheld $50 million from the UC in 2017 until eight campuses, including UCLA, met this ratio. Brown advocates the transfer option as a cheaper path to a degree. [Related link: UC to guarantee admission for qualified community college students] Brown and other legislators have also encouraged the UC to admit more California residents. A provision in the Budget Act of 2016 called upon the board to impose a specific limit on nonresident students as a condition to receive $18.5 million in additional funding.

The ManeaterTuition to increase at least 1 percent in fall 2018
The UM System Board of Curators voted unanimously in May to increase tuition and fees at its four campuses for fall 2018. The board voted to approve a 2.1 percent increase in tuition and deferred all but 1 percent for in-state undergraduate students. Under state law the university could have charged the full 2.1 percent, but the curators struck a deal with state lawmakers, who agreed not to reduce state funding for universities. This will preserve last year’s level of state funding. “I believe the legislators see the value of public higher education and the value that we provide to the state of Missouri,” UM System President Mun Choi said in a press conference. “Recently when we conducted an economic study, it demonstrated we have a $5.4 billion impact to the state each year, which represents a 13.5-times return on investment.” Ryan Rapp, vice president for finance and chief financial officer, said that the 2.1 percent increase is a “ceiling” … [Read more...] about The ManeaterTuition to increase at least 1 percent in fall 2018
33 Of The Most Show-Stopping Looks From Paris Fall 2018 Couture Week
STYLE & BEAUTY 07/05/2018 03:32 pm ET One dress looks exactly like a bed. No joke. By Julia Brucculieri We can always count on couture to remind us how extravagant fashion can be. The fall 2018 couture shows, which came to a close on Thursday (yes, during the summer) in Paris, were no exception. There were breathtakingly beautiful gowns from Zuhair Murad and Elie Saab, puzzling layers (and ankle-strap phone holders) at Maison Margiela, very, very big hair at Valentino and a whole lot of fuzzy pink ensembles across the board. At Givenchy, we also saw yet another gorgeous collection from Clare Waight Keller ― the woman behind the Duchess of Sussex’s instantly iconic wedding gown. And at Chanel, model Adut Akech made history as the second black woman to close the couture show as designer Karl Lagerfeld’s “bride.” (Alek Wek was the first in 2004.) Needless to say, there were plenty of eye-catching looks ― … [Read more...] about 33 Of The Most Show-Stopping Looks From Paris Fall 2018 Couture Week
