Education, Higher - As introduced, changes the reporting requirements for the board of regents, each state university board, and the board of trustees of the University of Tennessee summarizing grievance activities of the previous year from annually to upon the request of the education committee of the senate or the committee of the house of representatives having jurisdiction over education. - Amends TCA Title 49.

SB 1324 changes Tennessee's higher education reporting requirements by shifting from annual submissions to reporting only when requested. It modifies Tennessee Code Annotated Section 49-8-117, requiring the Board of Regents, state university boards, and the University of Tennessee Board of Trustees to summarize grievance activities from the previous year only upon request from the Senate or House education committees. This reduces the frequency of mandatory reports for these institutions, streamlining their administrative burden. The bill takes effect July 1, 2025, and directly affects all public higher education governing bodies in Tennessee.
