Summary
The bill eliminates a state statute that allows colleges to force tenured faculty to retire when they turn 70. It would let professors continue employment without a mandatory age limit, aligning state law with the federal Age Discrimination in Employment Act. The change affects all higher‑education institutions and their tenured faculty in Vermont.
