    Amendment No. 1 (for drafter's use only)





 1  outside the home district which are not approved by the State

 2  Board of Community Colleges shall not be counted for funding

 3  purposes or to meet enrollment assignments. For purposes of

 4  this subparagraph, electronically originated instruction, to

 5  include satellite, broadcast, and internet delivered

 6  instruction, shall be exempt. Exemption is only permitted when

 7  the community college's intent is to offer the instruction for

 8  students residing within the community college's home district

 9  and only markets the instruction to students residing within

10  the community college's home district. If a community

11  college's intent is to market the electronically originated

12  instruction outside its home district and thus recruit

13  students outside its home district, the community college must

14  receive the approval of the State Board of Community Colleges.

15  The State Board of Community Colleges shall have authority to

16  review any electronically originated instruction for

17  compliance with this section.
