Douglas Lynch, Ph.D., professor and chair of the 成人直播 Department of Education, was quoted in a March 26, 2012 Kennebec Journal story on the effectiveness of proficiency-based education and the challenges facing the movement.

"Quite honestly, this is the most effective educational reform that I'm aware of in my entire 40 years of being an educator."
