A new initiative aims to provide students with a faster path to earning a degree. Governor Greg Abbott is behind the effort, which involves creating a framework for programs that can be completed in three years.

This framework is being developed by a working group formed by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board. The goal is to make three-year bachelor's degree programs available statewide.

Further details about the initiative are available from the source, including the announcement made by Governor Abbott and the role of the working group in developing the framework.
