Enrolled Bill Summary

            The Education Code provides an exemption from college tuition, fees, and other charges at public colleges and universities for certain military veterans, persons with military-related service, and offspring of certain deceased or missing military personnel. House Bill 2394 amends the code to allow a junior college district's governing board to provide that these exemptions do not apply to a course fee or training fee charged by the junior college district to cover flight time costs associated with an aircraft flight training course if the costs are incurred by a student who does not have a private pilot rating or who has a private pilot rating but is not actively seeking to meet Federal Aviation Administration requirements of additional certification or rating. The act takes effect beginning with the 1997 fall semester.
