Section 17, Article VII, Texas Constitution, established the Higher Education Fund (HEF) to benefit public colleges and universities that are not eligible for the Available University Fund. The provision that specifies the higher education institutions eligible to receive funds from the HEF currently identifies Angelo State University (ASU) as a component institution of the Texas State University System. House Joint Resolution 103 proposes an amendment to the state constitution to provide "for the continuation of the constitutional appropriation for facilities and other capital items at Angelo State University on a change in the governance of the university" to reflect ASU's transfer to the Texas Tech University System with the passage of House Bill 3564 by the 80th Texas Legislature.
