A bill for an act requiring the state board of regents to conduct a study regarding the reintroduction of VEISHEA at Iowa state university, and including effective date provisions.

HSB 545 requires Iowa's State Board of Regents to study whether reintroducing VEISHEA - a university-wide celebration discontinued in 2014 - would be practical and beneficial for Iowa State University. The study must assess feasibility and potential benefits, with the board submitting findings to education committee chairs before November 2026. This bill does not authorize the event's return but mandates an evaluation. It directly affects the State Board of Regents and Iowa State University's planning processes. The bill takes effect immediately upon enactment.
