    1-3        BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS:
    1-4        SECTION 1.  Chapter 106, Education Code, is amended by adding
    1-5  Subchapter Z to read as follows:
    1-6                SUBCHAPTER Z.  MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

    1-8  designation of the marching band of Texas Southern University is
    1-9  "The Ocean of Soul."
   1-10        SECTION 2.  The importance of this legislation and the
   1-11  crowded condition of the calendars in both houses create an
   1-12  emergency and an imperative public necessity that the
   1-13  constitutional rule requiring bills to be read on three several
   1-14  days in each house be suspended, and this rule is hereby suspended,
   1-15  and that this Act take effect and be in force from and after its
   1-16  passage, and it is so enacted.
