School Notes
Nestled in the rolling hills just outside Wooster, Ohio, our campus
draws students from far afield and from just around the corner.
They come for our excellent facilities, a mix of high-tech and
down-home, that range from tropical plant conservatory to
construction lab, floral design studio to foaling barn. On the
central campus, our Horticulture Complex includes five production
greenhouses, classrooms and a lovely historic conservatory,
blooming with exotic and tropical plants all year round. OARDC
provides opportunities Adjacent to Ohio State ATI's Central Campus,
the Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center offers
internship and employment opportunities for our agriculture and
horticulture students. Also affiliated with The Ohio State
University, OARDC is one of the country's largest research
institutes of its kind, and maintains dozens of working
laboratories and research plots as well as Secrest Arboretum and a
renowned rose garden. Ohio State ATI students can earn an Associate
degree in one or more of 28 majors or "technologies" or a
certificate of competency in hydraulic service and repair and
commercial turf equipment. Each program of study provides excellent
career preparation, combining coursework with a variety of hands-on
practical experiences and the opportunity to make professional
contacts with industry insiders. Students who successfully complete
prescribed courses earn an Associate of Applied Science, Associate
of Science, or the Certificate of Competency.
Remedial education exists to help struggling students succeed in college-level classes. Unfortunately, the existing model may be doing more harm than good. Keep reading to learn more about the history of remedial education and what community colleges are doing to change it.
We look at the recommendations for improving completion rates in a new report issued by the Complete College Ohio Task Force, which includes financial incentives.
Although many students need some remedial education before beginning college coursework, statistics show dismal completion rates for those who begin in remedial classes. We take a closer look at the problem, as well as some of the ways colleges are tackling it.
