University of California: Hastings College of the Law.
Summary
The California Constitution provides that the University of California constitutes a public trust, and requires the university to be administered by the Regents of the University of California, a corporation in the form of a board, with full powers of organization and government, subject to legislative control only for specified purposes. Existing law establishes the Hastings College of the Law, under the governance of an 11-member Board of Directors of the Hastings College of the Law, within the University of California. Existing law provides that the college shall forever be known and designated as the Hastings College of the Law. This bill would instead provide that the college shall be designated as the College of the Law. The bill would rename Hastings College of the Law as the College of the Law and would rename the Board of Directors of the Hastings College of the Law as the Board of Directors of the College of the Law. The bill would make conforming changes.
