Naval Postgraduate School Summary

The following paragraph provided courtesy of wikipedia.

The Naval Postgraduate School is a graduate school operated by the United States Navy. A post-war review team, which had examined 25 sites nationwide, had recommended the old Hotel Del Monte in Monterey as a new home for the Postgraduate School. In the summer of 2005, the School was placed on a list of possible base closures by the Base Realignment and Closure Commission along with the Defense Language Institute (DLI). Under the terms set by the commission, the Navy will relinquish control of the Postgraduate School’s classes and research projects to an oversight board (made up of a combination of representatives from the school and civilian educators), which will report to the Secretary of Defense. The plan is intended to cut costs by giving the school more authority to make changes to the curriculum and minimize duplication between NPS and AFIT in the aerospace engineering community of practice.
