SB 1085 Texas Senate · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to the course levels offered at Sul Ross State University Rio Grande College.

SB 1085 amends the Texas Education Code to update the description of Sul Ross State University Rio Grande College. It removes the phrase "upper-level" from the statutory definition of the college, which operates in Del Rio, Eagle Pass, and Uvalde. The change takes effect September 1, 2025, with the revised description applying to the college's operations starting January 1, 2028. This bill is purely procedural, correcting the college's official designation in state law without altering its academic offerings or funding.
