thank you for the opportunity to be here. my particular paper is co-authored with wilda rodriguez who could not be here today. we focused on how the shortcomings of a post secondary ratings system could lead to shortchanging hispanic-serving institutions and their outcomes. so as today s research and other research indicates there are well documented differences in student and institutional characteristics between hsis and nonhsis that would lead hsis to have lower graduation rates on average than nonhsis. and so our analysis at the beginning of this paper in the previous session we talked about the possibility of adjusting for some of these student and institutional characteristics. and so in fact at the beginning of our paper, we find that when we account for student characteristics, financial resources of institutions, policies at institutions that might influence completion, whether or not an institution has an open admissions policy, that the gaps in graduation ....

it just so happens that we already had one in the works. so we bring to you a proposed draft of that, we think that it is fairly comprehensive. and the only other thing that i want to say it has a few minute of last minute typos that we want to correct before the commission considers adopting this document. okay. let s see the first typo is right at the very beginning. where in the introduction, there is just a space between the and the end of this page. so it is just a movement. second typo is page 4. first line, yes, as long as the contribution is under 100,000 dollars. and the third typo, is on page 5, make a contribution, and the word contribution was spelled incorrectly. and the other thing that i wanted to say was generally speaking the commission approves these guides initially. but as legislation and regulation pass that it is just the staff that modifies them going forward. made available. i am clearly looking through my non-profit eyes, and i was w ....
