| TX | Signed into law 04/2001 | Postsec. | Relates to the University of North Texas System and the component institutions of that system. Analysis states that the Laws pertaining to the University of North Texas System have been introduced piecemeal into legislation, and as a result the language of current law may not be uniform. In addition, the current University of North Texas System Center (center) at Dallas offers junior, senior, and graduate courses. However, to meet the needs of the diverse population of the city of Dallas, the center may eventually need to be established as a full undergraduate university. Senate Bill 576 establishes the University of North Texas at Dallas and restructures provisions relating to the
University of North Texas System.
