On behalf of the Office for Civil Rights (OCR) and the Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services (OSERS) in the U.S. Department of Education, we are writing to you about a vital issue that affects students in school - harassment based on disability.
Our purpose in writing is to develop greater awareness of this issue, to remind interested persons of the legal and educational responsibilities that institutions have to prevent and appropriately respond to disability harassment, and to suggest measures that school officials should take to address this very serious problem.
Schools, colleges, universities, and other educational institutions have a responsibility to ensure equal educational opportunities for all students, including students with disabilities.

The Department of Education has many initiatives that have a profound effect on the school system and an impact on "Livable Delaware".
Over the years, the Department has initiated a concerted effort to improve school site locations and transportation options along with improved intergovernmental coordination and relationships.
2. Promote the re-investment of funds to renovate existing school buildings currently in growth areas, and promote the redevelopment of "brownfield" sites within growth areas by giving state, county and local fee exemptions.
In addition DOE should enter into the review process as early as possible, review acreage requirements to assess if they need to be revised or waived, seek justification for school district decisions and more rigorously exercise the right to not approve the site as permitted by the 29 Del.

A recent report on the use of the internet by Australian schools2 recommends the average school needs a data transfer speed ten times that available to most schools3.
In consultations with NOIE, education stakeholders consistently noted that the supply of quality, affordable broadband connections is the largest impediment to the takeup of broadband.
This school demonstrates the potential advantages that ICT and broadband can offer to schools.
Local area networks distributed these services to classrooms, libraries and staff within each campus.17 Anticipating a rapid increase in demand for network bandwidth, the inter-campus links were upgraded in 1999 to optical fibre using IP standards transferring data at 155 Mbps.

The Arts in Education Program is designed to expand the Council's leadership role in arts education by using artists and community arts resources in partnership with public schools.
The Council's goal, like that of the California Department of Education, is the establishment of arts education for all students, including students with disabilities.
The 1997 National Assessment of Educational Progress revealed a mixed picture of 8th grade students' skills in creating, performing, and responding in the areas of music, theatre, and visual arts (C2).
The Model Arts Program Toolkit, developed by the California Department of Education, helps districts to assess their progress towards full implementation dance, music, theatre, and visual arts instruction for all students (C1).

I have been asked to speak particularly about Dan as an educator --- as someone powerfully committed to the education of students at all levels, of physicians, of patients, and of human institutions, such as this university.
Leading Medical Education almost all the odds are magnificently stacked against anyone who sets out to transform the curriculum, the pedagogy, the form and process, and consequently the content or substance of university learning.
Each patient lives in a specific social context.
All these aspects of uniqueness impose on both physician and patient the need to learn about the always new situation, to find the plan of action that is most likely to improve the health of that particular patient at that particular time.
