HOUSE BILL 321
Community college, authority
EDUCATION – Adds to existing law to provide for emergency governing authority over a community college when the college’s accreditation is threatened or revoked.
RS30637 / H0321
The purpose of this legislation is to provide a remedy for local taxpayers should a community college be at risk of losing its accreditation. Under this legislation, residents of a community college could petition the State Board of Education to assume temporary authority of a community college in certain emergency situations.
There is no immediate impact to any state-appropriated fund. Should the State Board of Education assume authority under this legislation, the costs may be absorbed by current appropriation to the Office of the State Board of Education and the community college.
