Ch. 167 58TH LEGISLATURE-REGULAR SESSION
Sec. 7. The Board of Regents is authorized and shall prescribe the
fees, rentals and charges for the use of dormitories, auditoriums, dining
halls, buildings and all other facilities of Angelo State College, and shall
make rules and regulations to assure the maximum occupancy and optimum
use thereof. The charges made and fees fixed against students and all
others using any such facilities shall be in amounts deemed by the Board
of Regents to be reasonable, taking into consideration the cost of providing
such facilities and services, the use to be made thereof and the advantages
or benefits to be derived therefrom. Any and all fees that may be derived
therefrom shall be reported to the Board of Regents as may be required by
it, including a brief statement of the use made of such facilities and of the
persons, firm, organization or association that used such facilities to be
included in each report.
Sec. 8. From and after the operative date of this Act, Angelo State
College herein created shall be subject to the obligations and entitled to
the benefits of all General Laws of Texas applicable to all other state in-
stitutions of higher learning, except where such General Laws are in con-
flict with this Act, and in such instances of conflict this Act shall prevail
only to the extent of such conflict.
Sec. 9. The Board of Regents, subject to the approval of the Texas
Commission on Higher Education, is empowered to contact 90 upon terms
and conditions mutually agreed upon with the Department of Defense of
the United States of America to establish and maintain courses of military
training as a part of its curriculum, with the work of students enrolling
in such courses being credited toward degree requirements under such
regulations as the Board of Regents may prescribe, provided, however,
that no student of the College shall ever be required to take any portion
of such military training as a condition for entrance into the College or
for graduation therefrom.
Sec. 10. If any provision of this Act or the application thereof to
any person or circumstances is held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect
other provisions or applications of the Act which can be given effect with-
out the invalid provision or application, and to this end the provisions
of this Act are declared to be severable.
Sec. 11. The importance of this legislation, the crowded condition of
the calendar and the further fact that over one-half million Texans live
closer to San Angelo than to any other four-year state-supported college;
that within 150 miles of San Angelo, which area embraces some 55 counties
having over 171,000 scholastics, with nearly 7,000 high school graduates
with no four-year state-supported college therein, and the further fact
that almost one-half of the entire student body of San Angelo College
comes from without Tom Green County, create an emergency and an im-
perative public necessity that the Constitutional Rule requiring bills to
be read on three several days be suspended, and said Rule is hereby sus-
pended; and that this Act shall take effect and be in force from and after
September 1, 1965, and it is so enacted.
Passed the Senate, March 19, 1963, by a viva voce vote; passed the
House, May 8, 1963: Yeas 79, Nays 62.
Approved May 17, 1963.
Effective September 1, 1965,
