House Higher Education Committee
On Wednesday, the House Higher Education Committee considered additional legislation related to establishing more Tier One research universities. The committee also moved legislation to amend the top 10 percent law.
The committee heard HB 2075, which would remove community colleges from the “six-drop rule.” The original author of the six-drop rule legislation passed during the last session is a co-author of HB 2075; he testified that it was not his intention for community colleges to be bound by this rule. The committee viewed HB 2075 favorably, so we are hopeful that this bill will move forward. [Read the text of HB 2075]
