	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   SB 418, Morrell. California State University: readmission.
   The Donahoe Higher Education Act sets forth the missions and
functions of the segments of the higher education system in the
state, including, among other segments, the California State
University, administered by the Trustees of the California State
University. Existing federal law provides that a student whose
absence from an institution of higher education is necessitated by
service in the uniformed services shall be entitled to readmission to
the institution if the cumulative length of the absence does not
exceed 5 years.
   This bill would require the California State University to comply
with that federal law, as specified, and would authorize the Trustees
of the California State University to adopt regulations to implement
that requirement.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  SECTION 1.  Section 66610 is added to the Education Code, to read:
   66610.  The California State University shall comply with Section
668.18(c)(1)(ii) of Title 34 of the Code of Federal Regulations, as
that section read on July 1, 2010. The Trustees of the California
State University may adopt regulations to implement this section.
