STUDENT/LOANS-SCHOLARSHP: Requests the Board of Regents to study the potential establishment of a legislative scholarship program

This bill asks the Board of Regents to study creating a scholarship program where each state legislator could nominate one student per year for public colleges and universities. The study must be completed by March 1, 2027, and include recommendations for new laws if a program is feasible. The scholarship costs would be covered by the educational institutions themselves, and the Board must consult with college management boards during the review. This resolution does not create funding or establish the program, but rather directs officials to investigate the possibility and report their findings to education committees.
