State Auditor; require to perform 50-year review comparing appropriations to Alcorn and Mississippi State Universities.

HB 1281 requires Mississippi's State Auditor to conduct a 50-year review (1976-2026) comparing all legislative funding to Alcorn State University and Mississippi State University. The bill mandates the auditor to break down every year's appropriations - both general support and specific program funding - by institution. The auditor must submit a detailed report to legislative committees by December 1, 2026, showing total annual funding for each university. This report will provide a historical comparison of state financial support to these two land-grant institutions.
