Education - As introduced, authorizes the board of regents to produce and make available a copy of the board's tenure policy in an electronic format or in a printed, physical medium. - Amends TCA Title 8; Title 49 and Title 62.

SB 820 authorizes Tennessee's board of regents to provide its tenure policy in either electronic format or printed physical copies. This bill directly affects faculty and staff at public universities who rely on accessing tenure rules, as it changes how the policy is distributed. The key provision adds language to state code allowing the board flexibility in making the policy available, without altering the actual tenure requirements or standards. The bill does not change tenure eligibility or processes, only the format for policy access.
