university. it's one of the top public research universities in the country. a major part of our portfolio by definition involves things related to human health and wellness, to disease, to human biology. and having all the components of that on our campus. the basic research, the clinical research, the clinical care components as well as the arts and sciences and humanities necessary for any well-rounded individual who is going to participate in clinical care or research is critical to our mission. >> one thing that you brought up and one thing that you have focused on personally is diseases. i'm wondering with the ebola situation, the outbreak in west africa, the ebola disease, how do you think this country is handling that? and not only this country but the world. >> well, i think if you look at it from the perspective of the world, it's a response that has multiple levels. how do you deal with the disease as a disease? how do you treat the individual patient? do you have in your location the

so, we are a comprehensive university. the access to the federal government and federal agencies in partnership with other academic institutions is that it broadly extends the opportunity for education for our students a staff. >> what is the national security higher education advisory board? >> i'm sorry. i don't know what it is. >> it's -- well -- >> i do know that there are lots of -- >> go ahead. >> i'm sorry. go ahead. >> i was just beginning to share -- >> i'm not familiar with that particular advisory board. >> okay. created and operated by the fib in 2005. it's a panel of approximately 20 university presidents and chancellors, meets collectively at least three times a year in d.c. and consults with federal agencies responsible for law enforcement intelligence, terrorism and homeland security. i'm wondering what does the federal government get out of partnering with a school like the university of maryland? what's the attraction there for the federal government? whether it's the national security issue or cybersecur

baylor university is located in waco, texas. it is a private christian university. it is ranked as a high research comprehensive university. and it's a vibrant community home to over 15,000 students, including over 600 student athletes. baylor is a founding member of the big 12 conference established in 1994. we sponsor 19 varsity teams. very blessed at baylor to have student athletes who succeed both in the classroom and on the playing field. over the past three years, baylor university has been the most successful division i program in combined winning percentages of football and men's and women's basketball. but these accomplishments do not count, ultimately, in terms of what we emphasize at baylor. as commencement approaches next weekend on our campus, we are celebrating our academic accomplishments. like we gather together monday evening at baylor's farrell center to do exactly that, to honor our student athletes' performance in the classroom. during the prior academic year, mr. chairman, 86% of senior student athletes at baylor received their undergraduate deg

and a privates university? >> well the challenges, some of them are different, some of them are quite the same. the whole academy is dealing with the issue of affordability as are the public's, we all have different types of pressures. we're all dealing with the diminished level of support for research and scholarship from the federal government. so there are common features, because we are a public institution, we have a very public mission and a public responsibility and that's a little bit different than it is at a private institution. in state tu which is, $13,486, out of state tuition, $41,000. is that affordable. >> in certainly it's affordable for many families in the country. we have tried to make sure that the -- to the extent possible, others from outside the state, around the country and around the world to apply by using very generous need-based and other scholarship types of aid to make sure that a michigan education is attainable for everyone in our society. >> some stats on grants for need-based

both in the university of california and the cal state university systems over the last years. the end result is, we've done lots of cutting, lots of savings, lots of efficiencies. $660 million. we have hard pencil numbers on, much less everything else that's happening. we have frozen tuition for the last three years. we've done all these things. yet, we are still $460 million below where we would have been in 2007/2008, and we've enrolled thousands more students. what that means is that on a per capita basis, the state is putting in a less amount for the students than they did 30 years ago. >> the governor said one of the reasons they increased state funding is to keep tuition flat. this deal now, raising tuition, breaks the promise. what's your response to that? >> there was no agreement. i don't think anyone believes there really was an agreement. his plan, it's a plan but not a two-way agreement. his plan is that for the state portion of our budget, he'd increase that 4% a year. >> people hear it and go, that's a lot. what's the problem? our core budget is comprised by what

the university found the boy responsible for assault. he was expelled from his dorm, but not kicked out of school. >> i think at a minimum, they should have suspended im. >> the family said his punishment for rape was no more than a slap on the wrist. >> it's not that there was alcohol and a sexual assault. there was a confession to the sexual assault. that's staggering. >> a review of sex crime cases at hundreds of schools across the nation found victimises rarely face expulsion. even when the university rules they are culpable in a sex assault, as a sex attacker was. >> a local da declined an interview with "america tonight". but told rebecca's family there wasn't evidence to press charges. floored, the family sought out another avenue for justice. >> we began to thing of something needing to be down. they found it in the "america tonight" series, sex crimes on campus. we had seen "america tonight"s expose in america, about the title nine case and the young woman going forward and confronting their universities. it was interesting when

the relationship between the city and the university is fascinating. the concept of having a university here in madison occurred very early, in 1837. but it was not until 1848 that the university had any money and was able to get started and was able to start building buildings. the university of wisconsin, in fact, was very small during almost all of the 19th century. it was only in the late 1890's that it be can to grow rapidly. from that point forward, it continued to grow rapidly throughout most of the 20th century. so when the university suddenly got into this big growth spurt in the 1890's and through the teens, business leaders said this is an economic engine. this is the way to grow madison. that was a fascinating revelation for business leaders, because they had not thought of the university as economic development. one of the most interesting stories was the history of the progressive movement. to a large extent, it was about a relationship between president trost and ice -- charles van hyes, and the governor with the state. they decided to h

he cannot set foot on auburn university property. i guess for the rest of his life. >> the university denied our request for an interview, but provided the statement: >>> it is true that u.s. colleges are required by federal law, title fine of the civil rights act. to investigate claims of federal assault or lose funding. campus hearings like josh's caused concerns. and yes means yes laws have fanned it. >> there has been a change in the way sexual assault is addressed on campuses. there's a presumption of guilt against the boy accused of sexual assault. they don't get the due process rights that many americans expect to have occurred. >> despite the fact a grand jury found there was no evidence to indict you, auburn university chose to expel you. >> right. >> why? >> the explanation that we have come up with is just title 9 compliance. they had to have something to say that they are complying with a federal mandate to keep the funding that they get. >> maybe in the letter writing... >> josh and his mother founded an advocacy group c

what should parents, students look for in deciding between a public university and a private university like yours? >> well, there are a lot of great publics out there. as you pointed out, we're proud be in the big ten. there's 14 universities in the big ten. it's funny that it's still called the big ten. it's an iconic brand so we still call it the big ten. 13 of them are publics. they're the public ivies that go along with the private ivies. they're great schools. we're a lot smaller, as i said. we have 8,000 full-time undergrads. if you look at some of the larger ones, penn state, the ohio state, they have almost 40,000 undergrads. it's a little bit of a difference once you get on campus. there's more of a small-college feel. we like to call ourselves great research university with the heart of a small college. >> what about outcomes? are the outcomes the same? graduation rates, job placement? >> yeah. i'm an economists, so i've written a lot about this. i know a little bit about educational outcomes. i could say a few things about northwestern, our graduation rate is about 95% again

they are trying to regulate how universities use federal funding and making sure that universities know how to appropriately, i think, hand these things off to the people who are best equipped to handle them. >> you're talking about fines that would be imposed on the institution itself. what about the fraternity then? all have been suspended? what is at stake for a fraternity if it turns out that this kind of activity was sanctioned? did indeed take place in their frat house or, what -- what could happen to a fraternity, an organization? >> i think universities have to deal with the cultural problem that fraternities might be fostering or creating environments for this stuff to happen but criminally, prosecutors and law enforcement will go after people who are considered to be parties to the crime. if you aid, abet, an accessory, facility, knowingly participate in a crime like this you can be charged just like the person who commits it. i think until that kind of serious sort of heavy handed dealing comes down on these universities and students and fraternities, we will see this problem

universities sweep them under the rug. the don't of education is not holding them accountable and students saying this is not okay. >> when you have 18 and 19-year-old men and women holding the government accountable for rape, it just - it boggles my mind. >> the department of education has made an effort. >> yes, but they never really have done anything. there's no teeth behind it that we have seen. >> has any university had its federal funds withdrawn. >> never. >> no. >> no. >> the federal complaint against u.n.c. received considerable media attention and social media has given a voice to a network of survivors, many with the informal help of annie and andrea filed their own complaints. finally, there is a sense of a turning point. >> it's maybe easier to talk about plainliurism. we have to change that, switch the dynamic, we have to talk about violence, sexual violence. >> ewcombia is one of three full-time title 9 administrators hired since the complaint was lodged against the school. >> have we done it as well as we

major private university? >> the major issue is that each institution is trying to pay up to the of attendance. that's the issue out there. for each institution, that attendance or personal cost is different. trying to figure out their exact number where we can at least try to be equitable. the other thing that mr. schwartz mentioned as well, is the resources that would be necessary to provide that. not all schools are able to meet that cost of attendance, and it's a concern for them. or they'll have to make other decisions, and so that is a difficult one, and that's why we spent so many years trying to figure that out. i do feel, because of the discussion in the dialogue, that we're closer. we realize we need to enhance that overall experience for the student athletes, but it is different from school to school since there are so few that are truly making revenue that they're able to far exceed their expenses with revenue. it makes it hard, it makes it difficult. so i do think we're making progress but it's go

>> yes. >> this had been the case in university of southern california and university of arizona. they described a lot of it, about the additional money where it's currently calculated. it encompasses the -- the estimations are different on campus, but things like laundry and food and the ability for a young person to travel home, or there's just a built-in life list, and that gap of the current full scholarship to what they would estimate at u.s.c. to be full cost of attendance is significantly different than in tempe, because cost of living in los angeles is so much more expensive. so there's discussion about how to funnel what is needed to a higher-need student coming into this particular -- coming into a university environment. all those things, i think, are great part of discussions. and i can say this now, because i'm retired and i'm free to say it. but i actually would think, and in a way, would welcome a congressional review because there's so much positive that's under wraps because of the focus on just the couple of things. one of the primary being coaching salaries. it

i was told that university of virginia is quite typical, even though the things i discovered at university of virginia are really horrifying. what i was told is that what happens at uva is probably fairly normal at a college campus. >> reporter: according to rolling stone, the accuser did not report the incident at the time to police but did speak to a university official. >> when she left the fraternity house that night and called some of her friends they actually recommended that she not go to the police. >> reporter: at the university, damage control is in hyperdrive and police are investigating. the fraternity chapter is suspending all activity the and says it will cooperate fully with the investigation. uva's president said that the report includes many details that were not previously disclosed to university officials. the university takes seriously the issue of sexual misconduct. we have adopted several new initiatives and policies. it's a national problem. 88 colleges and universitys are under investigation for how they handle sex assault cases. a dean is dedicated to ending sexual

so i think the university is more selective. but what's happened at the same time is we're retaining students at a rate of nearly 95% from first year to second year, we're graduating more students and we're servicing students more. our mix of out of state to in state students has changed. in the five years that i have been here at ohio state, it was about 18% out of state students, and it's now up around 25%. and what that mixture actually represents, i think is the -- what our benchmark institutions, those institutions we want to compare ourselves to, what their actual rates of in state and out of state students are. in fact we're about 10% behind those benchmarks. and we're having discussions right now of where -- what's the proper mix of out of state and in state students and where do we want to settle out in. one more point that i think is important, we continue to draw students and serve the state of ohi ohio--this first class is first generation students, this is the first time, they're the first in the family to go on and

they come to university, they should want to be part of the university. aey shouldn't be using it as one-semester training ground to jump to the nba. >> and that hurts the overall perception of college athletics when you have these tourist students. >> when i was at the university of arizona, they had a great you could brand and say basketball was our bell cow was an opportunity in terms of the economic budget butn annual basis one-and-done doesn't hurt arizona or kentucky because the base has been loyal to that program. had i came to t.c.u., we have been to four tournaments in 60 years and when we were in the west conference, arguably, the mountain west conference was better than in terms of basketball depth at one time. but they didn't resonate. mexico, utah, b.y.u., san diego state, did not metroplex. the they were good teams. didn't resonate. >> i would suggest as a fan that you're arizona, you can follow those players for four years. >> they were still one-and-done, come and go. lieutenant olsen, every four was in the final four. he had an amazing re

but people think about the university of texas and what's the brand value of the university of texas and what does the football team add and what does that do in terms of recruiting professors and top students and donors and having matthew mcconnaughay do his true detective thing on the sideline for your athletes? i think there's a little bit of cynicism involved in saying either they made a profit or they didn't and there wasn't other ancillary benefits that happened. whether that's the 50-year program or the brand that's the university. the first thing we've said to cities when we've been looking at a potential olympic bid at 2024, if you're trying to make money as the first line then you're not going at it for the right reason. to say we want to have them be cost overruns and be burdens on their cities. but you have to see a bigger picture. i totally understand that your job is to get to those black-and-white numbers but i think there is some inherent value beyond just whether or not the profit and loss categories for those schools and the investments. >> i will go beyond that val

i didn't have universe. i didn't have energy, cosmos, big bang, gravity, earth, scientists, galaxies. didn't even have fog which is a very important word. i thing why -- turns out the very universe can be describe as a kind of fog but i couldn't use the fog word. so i was stuck. and so at the beginning was very hard, very hard. i didn't have all -- any of words and ken banging my head against this wall of self-imposed straitjacket. then something interested happened to me. this voice emerged and grew on me, actually. a new vocabulary emerged naturally by itself. the new voice was very much out of the interaction of what i wanted to say and what the format wanted to say or what the language wanted to say. so telescope became a big seer. the planet, a crazy star. the universe, all of us. the planet, earth, particle became drops, scientists were student persons. moon, the sun sister, why not. and galaxy star crowd, and i knew something for the big bang. now, my first word for the big bang was, the hot flash. no

most universities, we are 3%, 10% of the university budget. we make up 90% of the media, but we're only 3% of the entire budget, and in some cases maybe 10%. but the focus is a small focus when you look at the totality of what a university budget is. we are so small, but media is such a big deal, we focus on that little piece. >> so we've established the fact that you're on one side of the fence or the other. what's the ante if you want to be on the side of the fence with the haves and not the have-nots? you've been on the other side. >> i couldn't tell you that because you start to look at one of the things for us when this whole thing was a geography. we were in the right spot the right media market. you can think about boise. >> what are the investments that you would have to make, or that you were part -- that were part of programs that you were associated with that you had to make? give us an idea. >> what chris hasn't said is the dumb luck of the s.e.c. poaching two big 12 schools that allowed them to come in. they could have built all t

>> yes, i believe the university did ask all those questions. they got as much information from jackie as they could but they were up against a wall of not having enough information to proceed. so the next question is does a college campus do a warning? we have the ability to do a timely warning under the cleary act, to put something, a notice to the community that something violent has occurred. lacking specifics all the university would have been able to say is there has been a gang rape alleged in a fraternity house but not tell then where or what, so they could mea meaningy protect themselves. there's a penis on the loose and it may come and get you. only so much utility to it right? there is the potential to scare people without giving them the tools they need to take protective action. >> in this case, now president sullivan has suspended the fraternity's activities at least into the winter break, into the middle of january. can the university take further action, shut down the fraternity's activities or shut down the fraternity or any oth

it already was the home of the university of wisconsin. it was the capital of the state, and therefore, its legislative center. one of the real questions about madison was, what shall it be called? one of them was to be a wonderful northern resort where people would come in the summertime from places like st. louis and new orleans and enjoy the beautiful lakes and cool weather. that was one option. was, -- if you wanted to get discussion going on in madison, you throughout the idea of turning madison into a factory city. this is one of the few places in the country where that particular future was vehemently rejected. the bosses and civic leaders at century, 20th century, felt strongly that it was very important to keep madison beautiful. this did not mean that they would not be interested in business. as a matter of fact, they wanted business, but they wanted something they called "high-grade factories." people with fancy machines, almost high-tech in today's terminology. thatwas a huge debate ultimately settled only after about 60 years

opened fire at florida state university. >>> and now the details on the still developing story out of tabernacle, new jersey, a mother and son are fighting for their lives after a deadly shooting inside of their home in rural burlington county. a family member discovered the horrible scene and found one boy and one girl dead. but the mother and one of her other children were still clinging to life. sara bloomquist is live outside of cooper university hospital tonight where the surviving pair were flown. >> reporter: rick that is right, that woman and boy believed to be her son remain here at cooper university hospital in extremely critical condition, as you said two other children a boy and girl were pronounced dead at the scene, a source tells "action news" that investigators believe this was an attempted murder-suicide double murder. troopers went door-to-door as others converged on holly park drive in tabernacle looking for answers. it was 9:00 a.m. when state police took the call that a woman and three kids believed to be her children were shot inside of the home. >> it's a traged

they're experiencing not a university. not a free and open marketplace of ideas, but instead an ideological echo chamber. that's the shame. the response to that is not to take a look at liberal professors or leftist professors and try to shut them down. it is to expand the marketplace of ideas by allowing conservative voices. that's why i have been so outspoken. >> just to look at the list, you pointed out that one feminist professor believes women can replace men with dogs. there was a professor who cosponsored a panel on bondage. there was a professor who posted pictures of nude underage children as art. how to appreciate your -- the end of a sexual encounter. professor, thank you for being here. >> thank you so much. >> the professor was the most embarrassing professor on earth because he believes in traditional marriage. our next guest says it is not a problem. when we return, somebody from the other side. when we return with who is teaching our kids. people with type 2 diabetes come from all walks of life. if you have

the university of central florida in orlando and florida international university in miami. we have recently launched a connoissesortium of the metropo research universities in the state that graduates again, just about half of the baccalaureate degrees, two-thirds of the baccalaureate degrees awarded to hispanics in the state, about 55% of the degrees awarded to pell recipients across the state. their experience is quite different than, if you will, at the legacy institution. we are committed to collaborating, to sharing best practices, to leveraging resources across the three universities with a mind to betterer ask offing the new population -- better serving the new population of college attendees and college graduates in the state, and we believe that's absolutely essential if florida and this nation is going to compete successfully in the global economy and maintain what has become a commitment to providing social mobility opportunities through college education. >> thank you all for doing this and for joining us this morning. thank you.

so, the students tried to negotiate with the university. the university refuse. in defiance, some of the students set up a card table right in front of the main administration building and .anded out leaflets in short order, a police cruiser pulled into the middle of the plaza and arrested somebody named jack weinberg, who was on the table. they could go anywhere, students began to sit down around the police car and soon the entire plaza was filled with students sitting around the place car. they held captive for the next 33 hours. that was the beginning of the free speech movement. [applause] the fsm went on to stage a number of protest, trying to negotiate with the university. they ultimately put on what was the biggest sit in in the nation's history, roughly a hundred people were arrested for sitting in overnight. regents revoked this rule, essentially admitting unconstitutional infringement on free speech rights. when this happened, hoover, who already viewed kerr with suspicion, became convinced that wasr was -- that kerr untrustworthy. he believe that clark
