     Analysis of:   First Edition                                               Staff Attorney

     OVERVIEW: Senate Bill 390 would allow full-time and part-time campus law enforcement officers to
     enroll in courses without paying tuition and fees. The Board of Governors of The University of North
     Carolina (UNC BOG) would determine the number of courses these individuals could enroll in without
     paying tuition and fees.
     CURRENT LAW: The UNC BOG sets the tuition and fees at each constituent institution, not inconsistent
     with the actions of the General Assembly. Tuition and fee waivers are prohibited except when expressly
     authorized by statute.
     Under G.S. 116-143, the UNC BOG has the discretion to adopt regulations that allow the following
     individuals employed by The University of North Carolina to enroll in not more than 3 courses per year
     without paying tuition and fees:
            •     A full-time faculty member of the rank of full-time instructor or above.
            •     A full-time staff member.
     The enrollment cannot interfere with normal employment obligations and the enrollments are not counted
     for the purposes of receiving General Fund appropriations.
     BILL ANALYSIS: Senate Bill 390 would allow the UNC BOG to adopt a regulation allowing full-time
     and part-time campus law enforcement officers to enroll in a certain number of courses without paying
     fees or tuition. The UNC BOG would determine the number of courses that these individuals could enroll
     in without paying tuition and fees.
     EFFECTIVE DATE: The bill is effective when it becomes law and applies beginning with the 2021-
     2022 academic year.
     BACKGROUND: The UNC BOG has adopted regulation 1000.2.2.1[R] to implement G.S. 116-143 and
     allows employees to take 3 courses per academic year without paying tuition and fees.
