DIRECTION TO CODE EDITOR. The Code editor is 4 17 directed to correct internal references in section 261.9 of 4 18 the Code as necessary in conjunction with the enactment of 4 19 this Act. 4 20 EXPLANATION 4 21 This bill authorizes the director of the department of 4 22 education to appoint a designee to serve on the college 4 23 student aid commission, strikes language referring to defunct 4 24 federal law and a discontinued federal report, changes the 4 25 point in time when interest will begin to accrue on loans made 4 26 under the osteopathic physician recruitment program, and 4 27 pushes the date on which the commission is required to submit 4 28 a report on enrollment and employment information from 4 29 December 15 to March 1. 4 30 Congress in 1972 repealed the Higher Education Facilities 4 31 Act of 1963 and provided that the programs authorized by Title 4 32 VII of the Higher Education Act of 1965 are a continuation of 4 33 the comparable programs authorized by the Higher Education 4 34 Facilities Act of 1963. References to the Higher Education 4 35 Facilities Act of 1963 are therefore struck in the bill. 5 1 Language referring to the annual federal EEO-6 report is 5 2 likewise struck as it is no longer required by the federal 5 3 government, though other federal reports are required. 5 4 The bill also makes clear that an "accredited private 5 5 institution", as defined in the Code, is an institution of 5 6 higher learning that meets at least one of the three specific 5 7 criteria in the Code relating to accreditation and 5 8 certification, and all of the criteria relating to equal 5 9 opportunity and affirmative action efforts, a controlled 5 10 substances policy, a sexual abuse policy, and the filing of 5 11 the federal Student Right-To-Know and Campus Security Act 5 12 report with the division of criminal and juvenile justice 5 13 planning of the department of human rights. 5 14 The bill also provides that interest will begin to accrue 5 15 on a loan issued to a student under the osteopathic physician 5 16 recruitment program on the day after the student graduates. 5 17 Currently, the Code provides that the interest will not accrue 5 18 until after the student completes a residency program. 5 19 Finally, the Code currently requires the institutions of 5 20 higher education that enroll recipients of Iowa tuition grants 5 21 to transmit to the commission information about the numbers of 5 22 minority students enrolled, minority faculty members employed, 5 23 and existing or proposed plans for the recruitment and 5 24 retention of minority students and faculty, along with plans 5 25 to serve nontraditional students. The commission is required 5 26 to compile and report the information and plans to the 5 27 chairpersons and ranking members of the house and senate 5 28 education committees, members of the joint education 5 29 appropriations subcommittee, the governor, and the legislative 5 30 fiscal bureau by December 15 of each year. This bill pushes 5 31 that reporting date to March 1. 5 32 LSB 5229DP 78 5 33 kh/cf/24
