The bill, H.B. No. 2397, establishes new oversight provisions for the Thurgood Marshall School of Law at Texas Southern University. It amends the Education Code by adding Section 106.315, which mandates that the board directly oversee the general management of the law school. Additionally, it specifies that each administrator at the law school must report directly to the board regarding matters under the board's authority, rather than reporting to the university president.

This legislation aims to enhance accountability and governance at the Thurgood Marshall School of Law by ensuring that the board has direct oversight and communication with the school's administrators. The bill is set to take effect on September 1, 2025.
