Bill Summary

To eliminate the Board of Regents for Higher Education and reinstate the Board of Trustees for Community Colleges and a Board of Trustees for State Universities.

AI Summary

This bill proposes to eliminate the current Board of Regents for Higher Education and replace it with two separate governing bodies: a Board of Trustees for Community Colleges and a Board of Trustees for State Universities. The proposed change would modify title 10a of the general statutes, effectively dismantling the centralized higher education governance structure that currently exists. By reinstating separate boards for community colleges and state universities, the bill aims to provide more targeted and specialized oversight for these different types of higher education institutions. The legislation suggests a return to a previous administrative model that allows for more focused management and potentially more responsive governance for each segment of the state's higher education system.
