Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Board of Higher Education Act. Provides that, following notification to and a period of consultation with the appropriate board of control, the Board of Higher Education is authorized to take action on the dissolution or reduce in scope any and all existing programs of instruction, research, or public service that the Board finds to lack educational or economical justification at the public universities and community colleges. Requires each public university and community college to submit its plan for capital improvements of non-instructional facilities to the Board for approval before final commitments are made only if the total cost of the project as approved by the institution's board of control is in excess of $2 million.

House Committee Amendment No. 1
Removes language authorizing the Board of Higher Education to take action on the dissolution or reduce in scope existing programs of instruction. Provides instead that each State university shall report annually to the Board of Higher Education on programs of instruction, research, or public service that have been terminated, dissolved, reduced, or consolidated by the university. Requires each university to also report to the Board all programs of instruction, research, or public service that exhibit a trend of low performance in enrollments and degree completions and high expense per degree. Requires the Board to compile a report annually that shall contain information on new programs created, existing programs that have been closed or consolidated, and programs that exhibit low performance or productivity, and provides that this report shall be submitted to the General Assembly.
