• Acknowledging the 'Professional' in a Professional Degree Program: Waiving the Standardized Exam for in-Service Applicants to a Mpa Program

The use of standardized examinations as a factor in admission decisions in Master of Public Administration (MPA) programs is a customary practice at many universities. Aptitude testing of pre-service, recent baccalaureate recipients is a means of assessing continued academic success in a graduate program. However, we contend, a growing diversity in an applicant pool, which includes large numbers of mid-career, working professionals, demands admissions criteria that also recognizes professional experience as a possible indicator of future academic performance as well. This research examines the student records, over a seven-year period, at a NASPAA-accredited MPA program that has implemented a waiver policy for qualified inservice applicants to see if students with waivers fare any diffe...

• 'Accommodations' for the Learning Disabled: A Level Playing Field or Affirmative Action for Elites?

This Article challenges the premise that the ADA necessarily requires educational institutions to provide learning disabled students with any accommodations. A learning disabled college or law student who fails to live up to his potential, and who reads slower than one would predict given his general mental aptitude, is not disabled as a matter of law, provided he reads at a level comparable to the average American. The traditional touchstone of a medical diagnosis as learning disabled, which diverges importantly from the legal definition, is a substantial discrepancy between a person's mental aptitude and academic achievement. Moreover, there is evidence that significant numbers of students, or at least those with the wherewithal and initiative to consult psychologists and lobby school...
