Hello all,

I wanted to draw everyone's attention to the public input request regarding the reauthorization of the America COMPETES act. The request is active until October 30. Of particular note to this group is the following question:

"What factors should federal agencies consider to measure the impact and success of the federal STEM education portfolio, and to decide whether to expand, modify, or replace individual programs given limited resources?"
