Establishes a public law school in El Paso County, Texas, under a university system.
The bill allows the governing board of a university system to establish and operate a law school in El Paso County. The law school can offer customary degrees, and the governing board can manage it through a general academic teaching institution. Funding for the law school is contingent on availability, and the board can accept gifts and grants. The Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board must be notified, and a feasibility study for accreditation is required. Only one law school can be established under this act.
