As part of an ongoing process to improve access to higher education and increase the number of baccalaureate degree graduates in Wisconsin, the University of Wisconsin Board of Regents and the Wisconsin Technical College System Board appointed a joint Committee on Baccalaureate Expansion (COBE) in March 2004.  The Committee placed a priority on identifying innovative ways to expand access to higher education that would lead to greater opportunities to complete a baccalaureate degree in Wisconsin.
