The report focuses on the need for the Arizona Commission for
Postsecondary Education. The Commission is currently at a turning point. The Commission
was created to meet a federal requirement that no longer exists. As a result, the
Commission is planning to expand its policy analysis and early awareness activities, which
have been limited in the past. The report recommends that the Legislature consider whether
it wants the Commission to play an expanded role in these areas. If so, the
Commission’s statutory and budgetary authority should be changed to clearly specify
these roles. If the Legislature does not wish the Commission to perform policy analysis or
early awareness activities, it should consider sunsetting the Commission, since other
entities could or do perform its other activities.
