TO AMEND THE LAW CONCERNING HIGHER EDUCATION.

House Bill 1990, as amended, proposed a study concerning baccalaureate degrees in liberal arts offered at state-supported institutions of higher education. The bill directed the Division of Higher Education to conduct this study. It aimed to gather information on the applicability of liberal arts courses, the necessity of these courses for degrees, and the use of public funds. The study would also examine the number of students taking these courses and their impact on job placement and earnings after graduation.
