Rev. Stat. § 85-1412 (9)  \nIn 1990, Nebraskans saw a need for an independent entity to coordinate the state’s public higher education institutions from a statewide—rather than an institutional—perspective. To accomplish this, voters amended the state Constitution, creating the Coordinating Commission for Postsecondary Education [Article VIII-14] . The Coordinating Commission is an independent agency with a governing board of Commissioners who are appointed by the Governor and confirmed by the Legislature. There are ten employees on the Commission’s staff, making it one of the smallest agencies of its kind in the country.  \nThe 2024 Biennial Report provides an overview of the Coordinating Commission’s accomplishments during 2023 and 2024.  \n\n| THE COORDINATING COMMISSION IS RESPONSIBLE FOR: |  |\n| --- | --- |\n| • Creating and putting into action a comprehensive statewide plan to guide Nebraska’s higher education system. | • Approving or disapproving academic programs based on specific criteria: need, demand, unnecessary duplication, resources, and cost. |\n| • Partnering with Legislators to develop innovative and results-driven higher education policy. | • Assembling and analyzing statewide data and publishing reports tied to the state’s higher education goals. |\n| • Helping low-income Nebraska students attend college by awarding over $26 million in needbased financial aid annually. | • Administering roughly $367 million in annual state appropriations to Nebraska’s six community colleges. |\n| • Administering the Community College Gap Assistance Program, which offers financial aid to students in high-need fields. | • Authorizing the operation of out-of-state and new Nebraska postsecondary institutions. |\n| • Administering the Excellence in Teaching Act, the Nebraska Career Scholarships for community colleges and independent institutions, and the Door to College Scholarship. | • Saving Nebraska colleges and universities thousands of dollars through administration of a nationwide distance learning agreement. |\n| • Ensuring the efficient use of taxpayer funds by approving or disapproving postsecondary construction projects that rely on tax funds and rev","cbCaiimojPzZQTNj","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiimojPzZQTNj","pdf",728084,22,"English","# Introduction—What is the Coordinating Commission?\n# Comprehensive Statewide Plan for Postsecondary Education\n# Financial Aid\n# Reports and Analysis\n# Academic Programs\n# New or Out-of-State Institutions\n# Capital Construction and Facilities\n# Budget Reviews and Recommendations\n# Initiatives, Programs, and Updates","[{\"question\":\"What does the Coordinating Commission do according to the report?\",\"answer\":\"The report lists responsibilities such as creating a comprehensive statewide plan, approving or disapproving academic programs, analyzing statewide data, and publishing reports tied to higher education goals.
