Summary
The bill enhances student representation in higher education by expanding the Colorado commission on higher education (commission) from 11 to 13 voting members by adding 2 nonvoting student members who are enrolled at a state-supported institution of higher education (student members). The bill adds:One student member from a graduate research university or a 4-year institution of higher education; andOne student member from a community college, local district college, or area technical college. The bill shrinks the advisory committee to the commission from 13 to 12 members by removing the advisory committee member designated to represent the students of the state (advisory committee change). The advisory committee change takes effect only if Senate Bill 26-078, which makes related adjustments to the advisory committee's membership, does not become law.(Note: Italicized words indicate new material added to the original summary; dashes through words indicate deletions from the original summary.)(Note: This summary applies to the reengrossed version of this bill as introduced in the second house.)
