BOSTON – Rapid growth in enrollment and capital spending in the University of Massachusetts system may be coming at the expense of its mission to serve in-state students, according to a study released this week by the Pioneer Institute in Boston.
The study calls for tuition increase for out-of-state students. It also suggests that the university explore a cap on enrollment of non-Massachusetts resident students, who pay more than in-state students to attend the university.
BOSTON – There's change afoot at the top of the economic development agency charged with fostering electronic health records, expansion of high-speed internet access and the state's so-called innovation economy.
In a letter on Thursday, Pamela Goldberg, the chief executive of the Massachusetts Technology Collaborative and a prominent player in trade and tech efforts under former Gov. Deval Patrick, announced her resignation.
