Summary
The bill changes the Board of Higher Education Act so the state board must review and approve any new college, school, department, or similar unit at public universities and community colleges, taking into account the unique student population of each institution. It also requires regular reviews of existing programs and annual reporting on low‑performing or costly programs. The goal is to align new and existing offerings with student needs and state priorities.
