      Sec. 10a-25j. Identification of centers of excellence; evaluation of program. The Board of Governors of Higher Education shall, in consultation with representatives of the board of trustees of the constituent units, including faculty, develop guidelines for identifying centers of excellence. Initial proposals for funding centers of excellence shall originate within the constituent units, from faculty, staff or administration. The proposals shall be reviewed and approved by the board of trustees of the constituent unit to ensure that they conform to institutional priorities. The Board of Governors of Higher Education shall select a committee, including faculty and staff representatives from constituent units, to review proposals and make recommendations to the board. The Board of Governors of Higher Education shall: (1) Consider and select proposals; (2) request as part of its consolidated budget, pursuant to section 10a-6, appropriations to support centers of excellence recommended for funding pursuant to this section; and (3) provide for the evaluation of the effectiveness of the centers of excellence in meeting the goals established in subsection (a) of section 10a-25h.

      (P.A. 84-368, S. 3, 5; P.A. 86-283, S. 3.)

      History: Editorial addition of the phrase "of higher education" in references to board of governors was made to conform with provisions of P.A. 84-241, S. 2; P.A. 86-283 substituted the requirement that the board of governors of higher education contract with the constituent units with the requirement that it request appropriations to support centers of excellence and substituted "centers of" for "fund for" excellence.
