AI Summary
This bill requires disclosure of conflicts of interests in academic institutions. It amends the state's education laws to mandate that the Board of Higher Education establish a written conflict-of-interest policy for all public and private institutions of higher education. The policy must ensure faculty and staff members disclose any financial relationships with entities other than their employer or government agencies. The Board must also collaborate with the state ethics commission to issue guidelines to help institutions comply with the new requirements, taking into account existing policies and best practices.
