AI Summary
This bill amends Tennessee Code Annotated (TCA), which is the official compilation of Tennessee's laws, specifically in Title 4, Chapter 29 and Title 49, Chapter 8, concerning the Tennessee State University (TSU) board of trustees. It removes a specific provision from Section 4-29-247(a) and adds a new subdivision to Section 4-29-250(a) that explicitly recognizes the TSU board of trustees, as established by Sections 49-8-101 and 49-8-201, as a state entity. The bill's primary effect is to clarify and potentially extend the existence or oversight of the TSU board of trustees within the state's legal framework, with the changes taking effect immediately upon becoming law due to public welfare.
