Abstract:
This chapter provides a blueprint for strategic management of expansion of higher education in the country. The chapter begins with a brief discussion on conceptual issues like systems-thinking in the context of higher education and the case to promote diversity in provision as the system expands. Then the chapter provides a vision for the role of higher education in the country’s future followed by a brief comment on its origin and evolution. This follows an overview on the growth and funding of higher education. After listing out key problem areas, a set of policies is suggested. In doing so

Abstract:
Huntington’s disease (HD) is a rare inherited neurologic disorder due to a single mutational mechanism in a large gene (HTT). The mutation is an abnormal CAG repeat expansion, which is translated to a polyglutamine stretch in the huntingtin protein. The growing field of repeat expansion disorders benefits greatly from the lessons learned from the role of the CAG repeat expansion in HD and its resulting phenotype–genotype correlations. The molecular diagnosis can be difficult, and there are some pitfalls for accurate sizing of the CAG repeat, especially in juvenile HD and for intermediate allel

This chapter examines two Washington-based figures who provided John Philip Sousa with examples of just how expansive a nineteenth-century musical career could become. Indeed, the most important lessons of Sousa's youth did not come from formal apprenticeships or professional employment; they were found in the careers of musicians who lived in the Navy Yard. The first model was George Felix Benkert, who provided Sousa with a technical education in composition. However, the most remarkable of these models was, no doubt, John Esputa—a working-class musician who found employment where he could, w
