Enrolled Bill Summary

Senate Bill 73 amends the Education Code to specify grounds for removal of a member of the Midwestern State University board of regents. Grounds for removal include malfeasance of office, prolonged inability to discharge a member's duties because of illness or disability, or excessive unexcused absences from regularly scheduled board meetings during a calendar year. The bill provides that a board action is not invalidated by the fact that it was taken when a ground existed for a board member's removal.
