Jackson State University; create fund for construction of new football stadium.

Summary

The bill authorizes Jackson State University to plan, design, construct, own and run a new football stadium separate from the current Veterans Memorial Stadium. The university must first raise at least $10 million from private or non‑state sources; once that goal is met, the state could fund the remaining construction costs if the legislature appropriates the money. It also creates a special fund for stadium financing and permits selling naming and advertising rights.
