    AI summary This amendment removes the requirement for universities to lock in tuition rates for the duration of a degree and instead requires the board of regents to study a policy that would keep tuition rates the same for three consecutive years. It also changes the requirement for work programs from a mandate to a requirement that universities begin efforts to create them.
