Where's Waldo? The Conspicuous Absence of Higher Education from School Reform and One State's Response.
Conley, David T.
Phi Delta Kappan, v78 n4 p309-14 Dec 1996

Oregon's Proficiency-based Admission Standards System (PASS) is a state-mandated model that will enable a university system to participate constructively in high school reform. (MLH)
