BILL REQUIRES COLLEGES TO GIVE GRADUATION RATES

Federally funded colleges and universities would have to report graduation rates for student athletes and others under a House-passed bill described as "a consumer rights bill."

The bill cleared the House on a voice vote Tuesday and was returned to the Senate, which earlier approved a different version.

Under the bill, federally supported institutions would have to report to the Education Department their overall graduation rates, student-athlete graduation rates, revenues from intercollegiate athletics, campus security policies, campus crime statistics and information about results of campus disciplinary hearings.
