• Homeschool Mom Sues Sam Houston State Over Dual-Credit Access for Son (ksstradio.com) — A Huntsville-area mother is suing Sam Houston State University, claiming its dual-credit rules unfairly limit course options for her homeschooled son compared with public school students. She’s asking a court to require SHSU to open its full dual-credit catalog to homeschoolers. The outcome could shape how universities across Texas treat homeschool students seeking affordable college-level classes.
