There is widespread concern that administration consumes too much of the educational dollar in traditional public schools, diverting needed resources from classroom instruction and hampering efforts to improve student outcomes. By contrast, charter schools are predicted to have leaner administration and allocate resources more intensively to instruction. This study analyzes resource allocation in charter and district schools in Michigan, where charter and tradition public schools receive approximately the same operational funding. Controlling for factors that could affect resource allocation patterns between school types, we find that charter schools on average spend $774 more per pupil per year on administration and $1141 less on instruction than traditional public schools. (Contains 5 tables and 7 footnotes.)

To collect data for this study, a total of 279 questionnaires were mailed to school superintendents selected from a stratified random sample of public school districts in Texas. A total of 238, or 86 percent, of the questionnaires was returned. The study was designed (1) to describe some of the factors that directly affect the administration of girls' competitive athletic programs in each of the five interscholastic league classifications of Texas public high schools; (2) to determine the status of girls' athletics prior to passage of Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, the interim from 1972 to 1975, and since implementation of Title IX regulations on July 21, 1975; and (3) to describe the effect of Title IX on the administration of girls' competitive athletic programs. The study also investigated administrative considerations in providing female students the opportunity to participate in athletics; actions taken by school officials to provide facilities, finances, staff, activity periods, and supervision of programs; administrative planning to implement Title IX guidelines; extent of compliance in the school districts; and major administrative problems in implementing Title IX regulations in the public high schools of Texas.

This study examines the debias-literature in the context of public administration. Debias strategies are ‘techniques that undermines bias’ (Lilienfeld et al, 2009). For long, studies in the Public administration context have focused on documenting bias – eg. Negativity bias or motivated reasoning when processing performance information (Moynihan, 2018). This study aims to meet Donald Moynihan’s call for “using psychology to design ways to overcome biases and improve outcomes (Moynihan, 2018: 5) This study asks whether citizen exposure to contextual debias-frame (comparing with experts) will reduce the effects of framed performance information when evaluating danish hospitals. Furthermore, we ask whether the debias effects last when exposed with a second framing of performance information. The study tests 1) debias-effects in the context of public administration 2) if the debias effects last over ‘time’. In relation to the empirical tests, the study will elaborate a large theoretical overview of the debias-literature. This registration will primarily contain the empirical part of the study, which contains a survey experiment, and the empirical expectations in relation to this survey experiment.

During the spring of 1933, several leading corporate executives, working with those favoring government planning, attempted to use the economic crisis to establish government-mandated prices that would provide leading corporations with competitive advantage, including government-insured profits without the hardships of competition. The result was a government-business partnership bill that became known as the National Industrial Recovery Act. Because it had the assistance of a huge public relations push, the bill almost succeeded. Eventually, owners of small businesses protested, and their objections were publicized by sympathetic journalists and legislators. Finally, the Supreme Court declared the National Recovery Act unconstitutional. Recently, some public relations-minded corporate leaders have been pushing for greater business involvement in politics. Although executives have the right to suggest intensification of strategic public relations, they should also remember that past involvement in politics was not successful for some companies. (DF)

There is widespread concern that administration consumes too much of the educational dollar in traditional public schools, diverting needed resources from classroom instruction and hampering efforts to improve student outcomes. By contrast, charter schools are predicted to have leaner administration and allocate resources more intensively to instruction. This study analyzes resource allocation in charter and district schools in Michigan, where charter and tradition public schools receive approximately the same operational funding. Holding constant other determinants of school resource allocation, we find that compared to traditional public schools, charter schools on average spend nearly $800 more per pupil per year on administration and $1100 less on instruction.

The paper discussed the social implications of fees hike in public universities in Nigeria. Secondary data were used in the paper. The data were collected from both print and online publications. The paper submitted that stakeholders in tertiary education especially the universities have made their position known on the fee hike in Nigerian universities. Stakeholders like the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) and the Academic Staff Union of Nigerians Universities have opposed the idea of university fees hike and advised the government not to increase the fees in the various universities. Also, the paper in the areas of reasons given by universities in Nigeria for the fess increment identified; increment in cost of administration, low subvention from the government and poor internally generated revenue. On the social implications of fee hikes in Nigeria, the paper identified a likely reduction in university enrolment, retention and graduate output, an increment in the prostitution rate among female students, an increment in criminal activities, insecurity problems and poor human capital development. The paper concluded that the suggestions of the government on fees increment to enable public universities to generate more revenue and to be able to contribute to the internal management of the various universities is a welcome idea. But increment in the fees of various universities with the present economic challenges of inflation and high poverty rate and without any social programme designed or put in place to reduce the impacts of fees hike on the students and parents is not the best decision. Based on this, the paper hereby recommended that the federal and state government should launch a bursary and scholarship programme for students in tertiary institutions across the country. Private institutions and religious organizations should be encouraged to commence scholarship programmes for students. Fees increment in any university should be agreed upon by the stakeholders in various universities before implementation. The government should implement 15-20% budget allocation to education of as recommended by UNESCO.

The laws covered in this report were initiated as part of a federal policy of assisting school districts financially burdened as a result of new or expanded federal activities. Public Law 81-874 authorizes financial assistance for maintenance and operation of schools that have been financially burdened by government activities. Public Law 81-815 authorizes federal financial assistance for construction of urgently needed minimum school facilities in school districts having substantial membership increases due to new or increased federal activities. A seperate section of the report contains information on federal disaster aid for schools. Provisions for such aid are included in both the laws discussed here. The bulk of this report is made up of statistical tables covering payments to and current expenditures of local education agencies and related information. (Author/IRT)
