This bill aims to amend Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 137.39, by adding two new subdivisions that address curriculum control and reporting requirements for the University of Minnesota Medical School. The first subdivision, Subd. 2a, prohibits the Board of Regents and the medical school from allowing any for-profit entity to develop, manage, or control the curriculum taught at the medical school. However, it clarifies that individuals employed by for-profit entities can still teach at the school.

The second subdivision, Subd. 2b, establishes a reporting requirement for the Board of Regents. It mandates that by February 15 of each odd-numbered year, the Board must submit a report to the legislative committees overseeing higher education. This report should detail the use of funds from for-profit entities, specifically regarding salaries for teaching faculty, support for courses, and initiatives at the medical school.
