State Universities - As introduced, expands the list of those who are prohibited from serving on a state university board to include those who hold the position of a member of a governing body for another institution of higher education, not just public institutions of higher education. - Amends TCA Title 4, Chapter 29; Title 49, Chapter 7; Title 49, Chapter 8 and Title 49, Chapter 9.

SB 913 amends Tennessee law to prohibit individuals serving on the governing board of one state university from simultaneously holding a board position at *any* other higher education institution (including private colleges). It directly affects current state university board members who also serve on another institution's board. The key mechanism requires vacating their state board seat immediately upon the bill's effective date, with the appointing authority filling the vacancy. This expands a prior restriction that only applied to public higher education boards, now covering all institutions of higher education.
