BILL TEXT
INTRODUCED BY Assembly Member Quirk-Silva
FEBRUARY 14, 2014
An act to amend Section 78218 of the Education Code, relating to
community colleges.
LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
AB 1762, as introduced, Quirk-Silva. Community colleges:
Seymour-Campbell Student Success Act of 2012.
Existing law, the Seymour-Campbell Student Success Act of 2012,
provides that the purpose of the act is to increase California
community college student access and success by providing effective
core matriculation services of orientation, assessment and placement,
counseling, and other education planning services, and academic
interventions. The act specifies the responsibilities of students and
institutions in entering into the matriculation process, and
requires the Board of Governors of the California Community Colleges
to develop a formula for allocating funding for the Student Success
and Support Program that would be implemented under the act. The act
provides that, in the 2012-13 fiscal year and each fiscal year
thereafter, it is operative only if funds are specifically
appropriated for its purposes.
This bill would make a nonsubstantive change to the provision that
makes the act's operation contingent on a specific appropriation for
its purposes.
Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: no.
State-mandated local program: no.
THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. Section 78218 of the Education Code is amended to read:
78218. In the 2012-13 fiscal year and each fiscal year
thereafter, this article shall be operative only if funds are
specifically appropriated for the purposes of this
article.
