	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 2103, as introduced, Gomez. Community colleges: Board of
Governors Fee Waiver Program.
   Existing law establishes the California Community Colleges under
the administration of the Board of Governors of the California
Community Colleges, and establishes community college districts
throughout the state that operate community colleges and provide
instruction to students. Existing law requires community college
districts to charge each student a fee of $46 per unit per semester.
Existing law requires the waiver of this fee for students meeting
prescribed requirements.
   This bill would express the intent of the Legislature to enact
legislation later in the 2014-15 Regular Session that would modify
the fee waiver program of the Board of Governors of the California
Community Colleges to waive fees under the program where the student'
s residency status was improperly classified.
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: no.
State-mandated local program: no.


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

  SECTION 1.  It is the intent of the Legislature to enact
legislation later in the 2014-15 Regular Session that would modify
the fee waiver program of the Board of Governors of the California
Community Colleges, established pursuant to Section 76300 of the
Education Code, to waive all fees where the student's residency
status was improperly classified.
