The Tuition Payment Task Force will meet in Bethesda, Maryland on April 10, 1995 to plan a Public Forum on Tuition Reimbursements, which will be held on June 5, 1995 in the Auditorium of the Natcher Building (Building 45) on the NIH Campus. During the planning meeting, the Task Force will assist with the design of the open forum, preparation of a list of participants, and the identification of data and background information that will be important for a discussion on tuition reimbursements. The Task Force will officiate at the Public Forum, and will consider testimony from all participants. Immediately following the Public Forum, the Task Force will discuss the testimony, and each of the members of the Task Force will develop individual recommendations based on the information presented. All recommendations developed will be addressed to the Deputy Director for Extramural Research, NIH. All participants will understand in advance that the individual recommendations are advisory and will not be used as a source of consensus advice. If any of the resultant recommendations are adopted, they will be built into future budget requests. The June 5 Public Forum may be of interest to Directors of NRSA research training programs, trainees supported by those programs, officials at institutions receiving NRSA research training support, organizations representing academic institutions, and other interested parties. All interested individuals are welcome to attend, limited to space available. Discussion of issues concerning the cost of graduate education and the appropriate Federal share of those costs will provide a basis for Task Force deliberations.
