This bill mandates that Iowa State University and the University of Northern Iowa each submit a report to the general assembly by July 30, 2026, assessing the feasibility of establishing men's baseball and women's wrestling programs. The reports must include a detailed plan and timeline for the establishment of these programs, as well as an analysis of the potential costs associated with their creation and ongoing maintenance, including any anticipated increase in tuition due to higher enrollment of student athletes.
Additionally, Southwestern Community College is required to submit a similar report by the same deadline, focusing on the feasibility of establishing a men's wrestling program. The bill emphasizes the importance of these reports and is deemed to take effect immediately upon enactment.
