Smart IT
When it comes to technology projects, the value of an investment should be defined by its educational return, not its financial return.
Stop me if you've heard this one before. "Show me the ROI of technology in education, and then I will support your budget," says the chair of your school board. "Businesses show the return on investment for technology--why can't our district?"
This has become an increasingly common question in today's challenging fiscal environment, where the "new normal" makes for tight budgets. In fact, the Consortium for School Networking's 2013 IT Leadership Survey found that 80 percent of school district IT leaders predict flat or declining IT budgets for the upcoming year. Given this crushing fiscal reality, investing in new technologies is likely to mean making tough choices. So how does a savvy chief technology officer demonstrate that a technology project is worth the investment? Perhaps the traditional ROI formula is not the best metric to use.
In today's economy, according to a recent New York Times article, the value of what Americans get from digital technologies is not calculated as part of the gross domestic product. The GDP only measures the monetary value of the goods and services that Americans pay for, not the information that they gain by using technological tools. The same distinction can be made in education.
ROI is calculated by measuring benefits in dollars. But schools are not in business to make money, and should not measure success in terms of dollars. The business of schools is learning. Of course, if technology projects save money or improve efficiency, then a business-focused ROI is useful, but in general it is important to define the "value" of learning in education. School system leaders need to understand their educational goals and how technology will support those goals. In other words, they should focus not on demonstrating ROI, but what we at CoSN call the value of investment or VOI.
So how do you measure investments in technology that are focused on educational rather than financial benefits? A good place to start may be at your district's long-range strategic plan, which may contain goals similar to the following:
Certainly, dollar benefits can be assigned to some of these goals (for example, decreasing the dropout rate can have a measurable impact on district finances) but the mission of schools is not to increase revenues but rather to use public monies wisely in producing students who are thoughtful, productive citizens and members of the workforce. That is how schools "create value" for their communities. So, even though most aspects of schools' performance cannot be measured in financial terms, there are measurable ways to demonstrate to stakeholders the value of the investment in technology in terms of advancing the mission of the district.
The 5-Step CoSN VOI Methodology
CoSN's VOI website offers methodologies and tools designed to assess the costs and benefits of technology projects. The VOI approach can be used to evaluate the comparative costs and benefits of two or more projects competing for the same funding; to sell a project to stakeholders; to articulate the costs and benefits of a project to constituents; and, later, to determine whether a project should be sustained. The steps for performing a VOI assessment for each proposed project include the following:
1. Determine the Total Cost
To get started, you must understand the cost of a technology initiative over the life of the project--the project's total cost of ownership (TCO). Initial purchases, training, and implementation costs must be amortized or annualized, and ongoing costs must be added in. For your 1-to-1 initiative, for example, initial amortized costs could include devices over four years, yearly network upgrades for broadband capacity, and initial teacher training over four years. Unbudgeted but real costs include indirect labor such as the hidden cost of time that teachers spend in training and in handling technology problems. Typically, these unbudgeted expenses are as large as or larger than the direct costs. CoSN provides a free VOI Project Cost Estimator worksheet to help you to identify and summarize all of these costs.
2. Calculate Anticipated Savings and Revenues
Most projects, even those focused on qualitative benefits such as student achievement, have some cost savings. There may also be some anticipated increase of revenues based on higher attendance, grants, or state/federal aid. Some projects, such as administrative applications and teacher productivity tools, are implemented to save money. For these, CoSN provides a ROI calculator as part of the Project Cost Estimator. For projects focused on qualitative benefits, district leaders should bypass the ROI calculator and instead use a Project Benefits worksheet to articulate the benefits in measurable terms related to the district's mission.
3. Measure Qualitative Benefits
Since the purpose of schools is education and schools operate for the public good, many or most of the benefits of implementing technology cannot be measured in terms of dollars. We call these qualitative benefits. For these to be considered benefits, they must directly or indirectly affect the school or district's mission, goals, and mandates. Here's CoSN's suggested approach to calculating these anticipated benefits:
4. Compare Projects
If you are looking at multiple projects, you should determine the cost and project benefits scores for each, then divide the score by the cost to calculate the VOI. The project with the highest VOI will offer the most benefits per dollar.
5. Evaluate the Results
Once your wildly successful project has been implemented, you have an opportunity to objectively review actual costs and benefits versus the projected costs and benefits. This will allow you to concisely respond to any project skeptics. Since the anticipated costs and benefits were stated in measurable terms, the following actual results can be measured:
The Bottom Line
Assessing the value of proposed technology projects is vital if you as a technology leader want to have credibility with your school board, CFO, superintendent, and community. Clearly it takes work, even with CoSN's TCO and VOI methodologies and tools. But the reward for doing that work is informed decision-making based on a clear understanding of the projected benefits, which mean that you'll be able to answer your school board chair when she asks for the ROI of any technology investment.

Basic Wardrobe Planning is Easier If You Know Your Fashion Style – 3 Benefits & 8 Fashion Archetypes | Fashion
Basic wardrobe planning may be more cohesive if you figure out your fashion style type. Some types of fashion, offered with the over-50 woman in mind, are:
arty or bohemian
simply elegant (or elegant simplicity)
trendy or trend-setter.
romantic or sexy.
I call these fashion styles fashion archetypes, because they embody deeper needs and behaviors of our personalities. Expressing one of the types of fashion is a way of becoming the star of our own lives.As we age, we may have to reassess our fashion style: The suburban mom takes a job and needs a professional wardrobe; the lawyer retires from her professional career and takes up her dream of landscape painting. The suits have to go.Here are three advantages of basic wardrobe planning around a type of fashion that suits your personality and lifestyle:
Efficiency shopping and pulling an outfit together, even on the fly. If you decide your fashion style is sporty, you're less likely to splurge on that emerald green, ruffled jabot blouse that you will only wear once a year. After all, it hardly goes with the khaki and charcoal cotton slacks that are the core of your comfortable daily uniform.
Spending limited wardrobe budgets on what will give us the most use. Basic wardrobe planning involves figuring out what types of fashion we most need. It makes sense to add a black skirt to our professional wardrobe when we understand we've got 18 tops and three jackets to team with it. Shopping for an item we might have spurned as too ordinary becomes a fashion triumph.
Feeling well-dressed and comfortable on every occasion. The best fashion advice for women is to decide what feels good and looks good on you. Your personal fashion style emerges from that. What looks and feels good changes over time. Periodic reassessment is essential.
Here's a summary of eight fashion archetypes.ARTY/BOHEMIANThe arty look is colorful, quirky, sometimes ethnic, and always fearless. Natural fabrics are preferred. A snowy white poet's shirt, an embroidered jacket that goes from work to art gallery reception, and a luxurious handbag are suggestions for the bohemian wardrobe.SOPHISTICATEDThe corporate executive wife and the charity fund-raiser are some typical lifestyle choices of women who express their inner creativity with sophisticated fashions. Wardrobe suggestions are a Chanel suit, a silk dress, gold cloche earrings and a diamond pendant necklace.SPORTYThis fashion style is tailored. A blazer jacket is a must. It can be worn with a variety of durable, washable cotton pants, such as khaki, a good choice for the active, outdoorsy woman. Sweaters and sweater sets work well. A silk T-shirt adds sophistication. Avoid fussy prints and ruffles.SUBURBANSuburban fashion goes from town to country with ease. She visits a corporate office in tailored slacks, a fuchsia shirt, an elegantly tailored long jacket, and pumps appropriate for lunch at a chic restaurant. Then she's off to a soccer game. The pumps are replaced by rubber-soled loafers, the jacket with a sweater. Pick garments for their versatility.PROFESSIONALThe professional fashion archetype loves suits – pantsuits for every day, skirt suits for court, a tuxedo suit for formal occasions, and a tailored dress when a skirt is a must. Choose suits and tops so you can mix-and-match for maximum versatility. Add an embroidered vest for pizzazz.SIMPLY ELEGANTIf you've asked yourself What Would Jackie [Kennedy Onassis] Do?(book by Shelley Branch and Sue Callaway) Or What Would Audrey [Hepburn] Do? (by Pamela Keough), this is your fashion archetype. Stock your closet with solid colors and garments with simple lines such as the A-line, princess, and cheongsam dresses. Shop at designer consignment shops to achieve this look on a budget.TRENDY/TREND-SETTERThe older woman who adopts the latest fashion trends may end up looking as if she is desperately clinging to her passing youth. For best effect, add fashion trends to classic costumes. For example, an outrageous jacket, with lots of bling and some feather accents, might be worn with simple black or white beneath. Experiment. Every fashion mistake can be changed tomorrow. ROMANTICFlirty grows up after 50 or risks appearing as if life has passed her by. Ruffles, but not frills; clinging fabrics that hug curves without being skintight; and decollete that knows when to quit are hallmarks of the romantic fashion archetype. Strive for glamor and sensuality using texture and a bit of bling.Take this fashion archetype quiz to learn more.In summary, knowing and expressing your fashion archetype starts with identifying the fashion styles that fit your lifestyle and personality. Buy clothes that look and feel just right. Basic wardrobe planning is a snap when we build our clothes collection with our personal type of fashion in mind.

So the story goes that I saw this Etude House Collagen Moistfull massage thing (there's a whole range of skincare called Moistfull which doesn't really make sense) in a HUGE tub and I thought, I don't know what it is, but I want it because you get loads of it.
A bit like a visit to the buffet.
Anyway, so I've had this for a month or two and didn't know what to do with it. Truth is, I buy things with 'massage' on it because I have this idea that Mr C will give me a nice massage whilst I just sit back and relax and he won't just stop after 5 minutes and go 'my hands are hurting' or wait for me to fall asleep then go back to playing Grand Theft Auto.
I had this tub next to my bed then because my skin is awful at the moment I thought I'd slap this on and see if I could add some moisture as it's very dry.
This stuff is perfumed, it smells sort of..floral? It's a bit strong but I can live with it.
It's like a thick jelly, so I applied this to myself, massaging it in then I left it because I presume you can do that with a massage product right.
About 15 minutes later I realise that this stuff is sticky and is not getting any less sticky, and as I'm on my pillow, with cat hair sticking to me I realise I will have to wash this off. Oh yes, because it's a MASK. It doesn't say that on the front!
So I was it off – it's not that hard even though it's super sticky and my skin feel quite good actually!
Now I've read this is a 3 in 1 product – it can be used as a massage treatment, a face pack (leave on for 5-10 minutes) or as a overnight pack. I wouldn't recommend it for an overnight pack unless you want to wake up with your other half stuck to your face, but it's a nice massage product and a nice mask.
In fact I was surprised by how it didn't cause any kind of reaction on my skin which is so sensitive right now. Nothing. No tingles, nothing itchy.
My skin felt more hydrated and soft – no miracles but just nice for a little boost:
I like this a lot more than I thought I would. Great for hydration, good for sensitive skin, you get loads and you may be able to con a massage out of someone. Maybe.
I bought this from eBay for about £13 inc. shipping.

Carmen Tisch, the 36-year-old Colorado woman who notably punched, scratched, and rubbed her butt against a $30-million Clyfford Styl painting in a Denver museum, has been sentenced to two years of probation and will have to undergo mental health treatment because the justice system does not understand performance art. Oh, and she caused about $10,000 worth of damage to Styl's "1957-J No.2," which, while it's not quite so heinous a crime as butt-planting one of Jackson Pollock's ejaculate canvases, is still a pretty serious art museum indiscretion according to Reuters.
As a condition of Tisch's sentence, she must also undergo mental health and alcohol dependency treatments. As for Styl, the North Dakota-born Pollock-contemporary died in 1980, so his problems are over and he's probably not too broken up about the defaced canvas.

A new school year in Southington brings another chance for local schools and their surrounding communities to take advantage of rewards programs at nearby supermarkets.
Four major supermarket chains (Stop and Shop, Target, Shop Rite and Price Chopper) all have branches in Southington and all have programs that help residents earn donations to a particular school. Local PTOs have been using these programs for years with increasing success.
The details vary for each of these programs (some simply give donated funds while others allow schools to accumulate points that can be exchanged for items that can enhance a classroom), but they all have large potential with enough community participation.
"I'm very pleased with how it has gone over the years," said Cheryl Hilton Campbell, president of the PTO at Kelley Elementary School. "PTOs are usually more interested in passive fundraising like this. We don't want to resort to sending kids out to pound the pavement."
Resident Arthur Cyr, known in the community as a highly engaged citizen, heard about the programs within the last year and been working to spread awareness of them around Southington.
Referring to the initiatives as "the free money programs," Cyr wants to reach people who aren't as involved with the school as parents and communicate the benefits.
"We've got around 40,000 people in this town and I think a lot of us are missing the boat on this," Cyr said. "I think if these programs got enough exposure, we can double the amount that comes in."
Doubling the amount would produce huge donations for the school system, given that approximately $25,000 worth of cash and supplies was earned in the last school year.
"We really tried to make the most of it last year," said Barbara Cofrancesco, who handles communications for the Thalberg Elementary School PTO, which earned the highest amount. "It can be a lot of work to solicit parents and help them get set up, but it was worth it. We made almost $2,500 and that was just from Stop and Shop."
To use the programs, all a resident has to do is register their store card and enter a numerical code that coincides with the school they wish to support. These can even be used at store outlets outside Southington.
Once registered, purchases at these supermarkets will produce donations to the school at no extra cost to the shoppers.
All four of the programs can be accessed via the internet. Stop and Shop's program is at www.stopandshop.com/aplus, Price Chopper is www2.pricechopper.com/toolsforschools/enrollment.shtml, Shop Rite is www.shopriteforeducation.com, and Target is https://www-secure.target.com/redcard/tcoe/home.
More information about the programs is expected to be added to the town's website in the future.

Maranello, 20th April
Double debut at the Beijing Motor Show for Ferrari that, in a crowded press conference, unveiled his celebrative logo for China's Year of the Horse and his new Ferrari California T, the new car made in Maranello that immediately monopolised the experts' attention.
The crowds flocking to the event also got their first glimpse of the new logo created by Ferrari to celebrate the Year of the Horse in the Chinese horoscope, which interpreting the Chinese belief of success with Ferrari's successful heritage.
The logo takes the shape of a traditional Imperial seal featuring the Prancing Horse with an inscription on the side that translates as "May the Year of the Horse will bring success". The logo combines time-honored Chinese traditions in text, calligraphy, and seal-cutting, and is cut in the form of a stamp and dipped in Ferrari red, nicely fitting the dignity of prancing horse.
The new logo is also to be seen on the stand at Beijing and flanks the most important debut of the event, that of the new Ferrari California T, making its first appearance in the Greater China area. Needless to remark, the car instantly attracted a huge crowd of visitors as well as capturing the attention of the media, making it the real star of the Chinese show.
The car has 70 hp more than the previous California and a turbo V8 engine that guarantees a reduction of 15% in fuel consumption. In the Ferrari stand visitors are able to see the entire production and among these cars the most admired is the 458 Speciale, also a new model for Greater China market, that captured attention of media and visitors for his sportiness and performances.

Peter Hischier
Modesto, California
'50 Merc and '32 Ford
Peter Hischier writes, "I first met Gene Winfield in 1950 when I joined the Modesto Century Toppers Hot Rod Club. I was 14 years old and Gene was about 23. We had the meetings in his old shop out behind his mother's house in Modesto. In about 1952 I bought a '50 Mercury Monterey, black and yellow, all leather, quite a rare car. At the time I was working for Gene on weekends in trade for custom work on my Merc. A year later I sold the car to Gene who then made it a full custom by chopping the top and adding '51 Merc rear fenders. It was a super car. In 1958, he built my '32 Ford roadster show car, which won many trophies.
"We have had a close friendship over the years and I have had the opportunity to see much of Gene's work, and continue to marvel at his artistry and enthusiasm. I know Gene will go on doing what he loves to do until his last breath. What a wonderful, creative, and talented person he is. Those of us who know him well are very fortunate indeed."
Jack Hilton
Kelso, Washington
'32 Ford, '40 Olds, '47 Chevy
Donna Hilton wrote to us about her husband Jack's lifelong obsession with cars, starting with his first in 1959, a '47 Chevy convertible. He bought it from a junkyard, paid $90 for it, and was given $2 back for gas money. This was when gas was 29 cents a gallon! He has never lost the love for old cars. Since 1959 he has owned 65 cars, some were hot rods and some were muscle cars, and he has built three cars of his own. He traded a '56 GMC for a '32 Ford pickup basket case, building it from the ground up with a 454 big-block Chevy and Jag suspension.
Once he'd driven the truck to a few rod runs in the '80s, he decided to build a car that was more comfortable. Purchasing a '40 Olds from a car lot, he tore it apart, doing his own bodywork, widening the back fenders 3 inches and turning the bumper upside down. He did everything except the paint and upholstery on this car, and fitted another 454.
In 2002, Jack purchased the car he has always wanted: a '41 Chevy convertible. Obviously a big-block fan, another 454 found a home here, with '67 Corvette heads and Tri-power. This car is his daily driver when the weather allows it, though he still owns all three and he drives them all to shows. Now that he is retired, he has more time to build cars, the latest being a '46 Plymouth convertible with a 392 Chrysler Hemi motor that he's building for a friend. Why's that Jack, saving all the 454s for yourself?

Early '60s Group photo
Peter Zillger writes, "This picture, by Bob Geroni, was taken behind the high school's tech wing while classes for the underclassmen were still in session! Soon after, some of the teachers came out and told us that we were disturbing their classes and that we needed to leave the area. This we did in a cloud of smoke and a wheel-standing motorcycle!"
Shown from left to right are Jim McGrath ('57 Chevy V-8 convertible), Skip Mascola ('52 straight-six Chevy), Ron Maxwell ('32 Ford V-8 convertible), Jack Powell ('38 Ford V-8 coupe), Bob Geroni ('54 Ford V-8 coupe), Pete Zillger ('40 Ford coupe with 303 Olds V-8), John Palumbo ('61 Jeep), Wayne Edmunds ('60 MGA), and Bill Oakerson ('59 BSA).

BOSTON, Mass.—Three Anchorwomen finished in double-figures and Rhode Island College (14-5, 8-1 Little East) forced 20 UMass Boston women's basketball (11-8, 3-6 Little East) turnovers to earn a 55-44 victory over the Beacons Saturday afternoon at the Clark Athletic Center.
Christian McDuffy recorded a game-high 14 points on 7-of-12 shooting off the bench to help Rhode Island College earn their eight-consecutive victory. Stephanie Prusko added 11 points and Cara Paladino chipped in with 10 points and seven rebounds to help Rhode Island College earn the season-sweep of the Beacons.
Junior forward Kirsten Morrison (North Reading, Mass.) paced UMass Boston with her second double-double of the season (10 points and 11 rebounds). Morrison knocked down 5-of-9 shots from the field and pulled down a team-high four offensive rebounds.
Olivia Murphy (Canton, Mass.) registered six points and 11 rebounds, while Andrea Suffredini (Milford, Mass.) accounted for eight points, four rebounds and two assists. Freshman Mallory Nelson (Topsham, Maine) recorded seven points, three assists and two blocks in 27 minutes of play.
Rhode Island College led the entire way in the contest after jumping out to a 9-0 advantage. Prusko started the run with a big 3-pointer, followed by three-straight layups to make it 9-0 Anchorwomen just 2:25 into the contest.
The Beacons managed to cut the deficit to as few as five at the 12:11 mark (12-7) on an Elisa Ogawa (Yamanashi, Japan) layup, but that would be as close as UMass Boston would come in the first stanza. Rhode Island College took a 29-18 lead into the break behind 14 points off UMass Boston turnovers.
Freshman guard Chantel Jordan (Brockton, Mass.) led a big Beacons' flurry out of the break, as UMass Boston scored 10 of the first 12 points to start the second half. Morrison started the run with a layup and Jordan added four points in a row, two free throws and a layup, to cut the deficit to 31-24. The Beacons kept it going with a jumper from Suffredini and a layup from Murphy to make it 31-28 Rhode Island College, but that's as close as UMass Boston would get.
The next defensive possession proved pivotal as the Beacons blocked a pair of shots but allowed four offensive rebounds, with McDuffy finally knocking down a layup off of an inbounds play.
McDuffy's basket turned the tide, as the Anchorwomen went on a 7-0 run to grab a 10-point lead (38-28) at the 13:54 mark and led by two-possessions the rest of the way.
Rhode Island College held UMass Boston to 37.5 percent (18-for-48) from the field and 0-for-3 from behind the arc. On the other side, the visitors knocked down 25-of-62 (40.3 percent) of their field-goal attempts and 4-of-14 (28.6 percent) of their 3-pointers.
UMass Boston will return to action Tuesday for their final non-conference game of the season, a 7 p.m. contest at Suffolk University.

People travelling in and around Brighton and Preston Park have been warned to expect delays due to this weekend's Brighton Pride.
Otherwise there appeared to be little morning congestion on either the major or minor roads around Sussex.
On the trains, a major signalling problem means there are currently no trains running between Uckfield and Hurst Green, according to a statement on Southern's website just before 10am.
Uckfield line tickets were valid on Southern train services between Lewes/Haywards Heath and London while the problem continued.
Southern also said that Brighton and Hove were accepting rail ticket holders on bus services (Route 29) between Lewes and Tunbridge Wells.
Otherwise rail services appeared to be running on time.
Today's weather is set to be dry this morning with sunny spells and a light breeze, but clouding over throughout the afternoon in some places.
Tonight is expected to be dry.

Can't afford a brand-new BMW M6 Convertible? Neither can most people, as the car costs over $100,000. But a California woman thought that she could afford to lease one. She had a good credit history. She even plunked down her $30,000 life savings for a down payment. Trouble is that she's on a fixed income: a $2500 monthly disability check. And thats a problem when the monthly lease payment is $1300. Don't forget you still have to pay for insurance and other running costs. (And most people don't like living in their cars.)
Things get sketchy when you hear that the salesperson at the dealership allegedly filled out her paperwork to initially read "$6000" as her monthly income. To top things off, that figure was later changed, supposedly behind the customer's back, to "$8600.00." Walk into some BMW dealerships and you really start moving up in the world.

IMCOM united in service of others, misson
Lt. Gen. Mike Ferriter and Command Sgt. Maj. Earl Rice
Installation Management Command
It's been immortalized in carols as "the most wonderful time of the year," and it is for the Army's home.
It's a wonderful time to be part of U.S. Army Installation Management Command.
We have an incredible workforce and mission. Ours is a diverse team made up of Soldiers, civilians and family members.
The IMCOM team hails from every corner of the globe, with differing cultures and beliefs — all united in the service of others. It's just the right mix to support troops, provide programs and offer world-class customer service to the best-trained Army in the world.
Whether anticipating Christmas, Kwanzaa, Hanukah or time among family and friends during this holiday season know that you are a valued member of the team.
Command Sgt. Maj. Rice and I can never thank you enough for the life of service and sacrifice you've chosen and for the opportunity to share that with you here at IMCOM, the Army's home. We hope that this holiday season provides opportunities for reflection, recreation and renewed commitment to improvement.
Team, we've accomplished a lot in the last 10 years: developing our workforce, being good stewards of financial and environmental resources, improving the quality of life in Army communities worldwide. IMCOM is a world-class operation because of you.
Our mission is complex, a job that is 24 hours a day, seven days a week. While some can rest briefly, others may not. Remember your teammates who will be manning facilities, serving chow to deployed troops or helping newly arrived families find lodging. This is the essence of what we do every day — providing a quality of life commensurate with their quality of service.
Now more than ever is the time to remember your family and extended Army family as well: battle buddies, co-workers and the person next to you now. As you travel or attend celebrations, be mindful of your actions and surroundings, keeping safety and responsibility to your teammates and families in mind.
We wish you and your families a happy holiday season, a prosperous New Year and look forward to starting 2013 with each member of this team, ready, resilient and committed to the next step in enhancing the lives of our Soldiers.
Army strong!
(Editor's note: Ferriter is the commanding general, IMCOM, and Command Sgt. Maj. Earl Rice, is its senior enlisted leader.)

Educating the troops: K-State recognized for its dedication to serving military students
Submitted by Communications and Marketing
Kansas State University's long history of working with military students has been recognized for the third time by G.I. Jobs magazine. The publication, which caters to those transitioning out of the military, has again named K-State as one of the nation's top military-friendly universities.
The university was nominated by the Division of Continuing Education, which offers information, assistance and distance programming to students, including military members and their families. Ruth Stanley, a continuing education adviser for military students, said the division decided to nominate K-State because of its constant outreach to the military, both locally and overseas.
"We get calls from all over the world -- like Afghanistan to Iraq -- from soldiers wanting to take distance education classes, and we go overboard to help them make sure they get everything they need," Stanley said. "Often soldiers getting out of the military opt to stay in Manhattan, no matter where they're from, because they enjoy the atmosphere and the fact that we understand them."
According to G.I. Jobs, K-State was chosen as a top military-friendly school because of its strong commitment to educate service members through distance education, evening college, on-campus learning or through nearby military installations like Fort Riley and Fort Leavenworth.
The university's award-winning distance education programs include 17 certificates, nine bachelor's degrees, 21 master's degrees and one doctoral degree. A veterans affairs office is available on the Manhattan campus, and a K-State Extension office is available at Fort Riley.
The Military Spouse Career Advancement Accounts program provides up to $4,000, over two years, of financial assistance for military spouses who are pursuing eligible degree programs, licenses or credentials leading to employment in portable career fields. Other military-related scholarships include the Horatio Alger Military Veterans Scholarships and the Huebner Scholarships, among others.
Stanley said evening college is set up in eight-week classes at K-State so that military personnel can see eight weeks out if they are being deployed. In addition, K-State's policy is that active-duty or reserve military students who are being deployed can be dropped from their classes with a 100-percent refund no matter where they are in the semester. They can then return to school without penalty. In-state tuition is also offered to any soldier stationed in Kansas or their family members, Stanley said.
"It's great when a soldier is in Afghanistan trying to finish his or her degree," she said. "When they're here, we give them tickets to athletic events and recognize them during the Fort Riley Day football game. We want them to feel like they're part of K-State and let them know that we care about them."
Military personnel who are enrolled full-time make up 2 percent of K-State's enrollment, while 4 percent of the enrollment is part-time military personnel.
K-State has also been recognized for four years in a row by the journal Military Advanced Education for its work with the military.

Did Bieber's bus get busted? Reports surfaced Thursday, Apr. 25 in Swedish newspapers that Justin Bieber's tour bus was searched by police Wednesday night and turned up a small amount of marijuana and a stun gun.
Lars Bystrom, press officer of the Stockholm police department, confirmed to Us Weekly that the 19-year-old singer's bus was, in fact, searched Wednesday.
"It was an on duty police officer at the Grand Hotel in Stockholm, where Bieber was staying, who first smelled the scent of marijuana or hashish coming from the bus, just as the door of the bus slammed. There were approximately 10 people on board at the time. At that time the bus left for the Globe Arena, which is where Justin was due to perform," Bystrom said. "The officer contacted our narcotics unit to gain a warrant to check the bus at the Globe's garage. Police and sniffer dogs obtained a warrant to search the bus. During the raid they found a small amount of undetermined drugs and a stun gun, which would require license in Sweden."
No one will be charged, however, as the bus was empty at the time of the search.
"The drugs have been sent for analysis and the stun gun has been seized, however because at the time of the raid the bus was empty, no suspects have been linked to the findings. We do not have any concrete suspicions against any specific individual," Bystrom explained. "There are no hearings planned over this. Myself and my colleagues are confident in this decision."
Bieber's rep had no comment, but a source close to the singer tells Us, "The story isn't accurate . . . the cops did inspect but found nothing and left. No violations. Nothing."
Bieber tweeted as much on Thursday. "Some of the rumors about me . . . where do people even get this stuff," he wrote. "Whatever . . . back to the music."
In February, Bieber admitted to smoking weed after photos surfaced and issued an apology in a humorous way on Saturday Night Live. While pretending to be the president of Miley Cyrus' fan club in a sketch, Bieber said about himself, "I also heard he got busted for smoking weed and he's really sorry about it and people make mistakes and he's never gonna do it again."
