contrary to the public interest (within the meaning of section

553(b)(3)(B) of title 5), and publishes the basis for such

determination in the Federal Register at the same time as the

proposed regulations in question are first published. All

published proposed regulations shall conform to agreements

resulting from such negotiated rulemaking unless the Secretary

reopens the negotiated rulemaking process or provides a written

explanation to the participants in that process why the Secretary

has decided to depart from such agreements. Such negotiated

rulemaking shall be conducted in accordance with the provisions

of paragraph (1), and the Secretary shall ensure that a clear and

reliable record of agreements reached during the negotiations

process is maintained.

(c) Applicability of Federal Advisory Committee Act

The Federal Advisory Committee Act shall not apply to activities

carried out under this section.

(d) Authorization of appropriations

There are authorized to be appropriated in any fiscal year or

made available from funds appropriated to carry out this part in

any fiscal year such sums as may be necessary to carry out the

provisions of this section, except that if no funds are

appropriated pursuant to this subsection, the Secretary shall make

-STATUTE-

(a) Preparations for Year 2000

In order to ensure that the processing, delivery, and

administration of grant, loan, and work assistance provided under

this subchapter and part C of subchapter I of chapter 34 of title

42 is not interrupted due to operational problems related to the

inability of computer systems to indicate accurately dates after

December 31, 1999, the Secretary of Education shall -

(1) take such actions as are necessary to ensure that all

internal and external systems, hardware, and data exchange

infrastructure administered by the Department that are necessary

for the processing, delivery, and administration of the grant,

loan, and work assistance are Year 2000 compliant by March 31,

1999, such that there will be no business interruption after

December 31, 1999;

(2) ensure that the Robert T. Stafford Federal Student Loan

Program and the William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan Program are

equal in level of priority with respect to addressing, and that

resources are managed to equally provide for successful

resolution of, the Year 2000 computer problem in both programs by

December 31, 1999;

(3) work with the Department's various data exchange partners

under this subchapter and part C of subchapter I of chapter 34 of

title 42 to fully test all data exchange routes for Year 2000

compliance via end-to-end testing, and submit a report describing

the parameters and results of such tests to the Comptroller

General not later than March 31, 1999;

(4) ensure that the Inspector General of the Department (or an

external, independent entity selected by the Inspector General)

performs and publishes a risk assessment of the systems and

hardware under the Department's management, that has been

reviewed by an independent entity, and make such assessment

publicly available not later than 60 days after October 7, 1998;

(5) not later than June 30, 1999, ensure that the Inspector

General (or an external, independent entity selected by the

Inspector General) conducts a review of the Department's Year

2000 compliance for the processing, delivery, and administration

of grant, loan, and work assistance, and submits a report

reflecting the results of that review to the Chairperson of the

Committee on Labor and Human Resources of the Senate and the

Chairperson of the Committee on Education and the Workforce of

the House of Representatives;

(6) develop a contingency plan to ensure the programs under

this subchapter and part C of subchapter I of chapter 34 of title

42 will continue to run uninterrupted in the event of widespread

disruptions in the flow of accurate computerized data, which

contingency plan shall include a prioritization of mission

critical systems and strategies to allow data partners to

transfer data through alternate means; and

(7) alert Congress at the earliest possible time if mission

critical deadlines will not be met.

(b) Postponement authority for Year 2000

(1) Purpose

It is the purpose of this subsection to provide the Secretary

with the flexibility necessary to -

(A) ensure that the resources and capabilities of

institutions, lenders, and guaranty agencies are not

overburdened by the combination of student aid processing and

delivery requirements added or modified by the amendments made

by the Higher Education Amendments of 1998 and by the changes

required to ensure that the systems of the institutions,

lenders and guaranty agencies are Year 2000 compliant; and

(B) avoid the disruption of grant, loan, or work assistance

funds awarded to students because of Year 2000 compliance

problems at a substantial number of institutions, lenders, and

guaranty agencies.

(2) Authority to postpone

The Secretary may postpone, for a period of time described in

paragraph (3), the implementation of any requirements under part

B, C, D, or F of this subchapter that are added or modified by

the amendments made by the Higher Education Amendments of 1998

related to the processing or delivery of grant, loan, and work

assistance (which shall not include the determination of need for

such assistance) provided under this subchapter and part C of

subchapter I of chapter 34 of title 42, if the Secretary -

(A) determines that -

(i) implementation of such requirements would require

extensive changes to the existing systems of institutions,

lenders, or guaranty agencies; and

(ii) postponement is necessary to avoid jeopardizing the

ability of a substantial number of institutions, lenders, or

guaranty agencies to ensure that all of the systems of the

institutions, lenders, or guaranty agencies related to the

processing or delivery of such assistance function

successfully after December 31, 1999; and

(B) promptly publishes in the Federal Register a list of, and

notifies Congress of, any provisions, the implementation of

which the Secretary intends to postpone, with the reasons for

such postponement.

(3) Exceptions to authority

The Secretary may not postpone the implementation of one or

more provisions described in this subsection longer than the

earlier of -

(A) the period of time that the Secretary determines

necessary to ensure that the processing and delivery systems of

the institutions, lenders, and guaranty agencies referred to in

paragraph (1)(A)(ii) (FOOTNOTE 1) are capable of functioning

successfully after December 31, 1999; or

(FOOTNOTE 1) So in original. Probably should be paragraph

''(2)(A)(ii)''.

(B) one award year after the effective date applicable to

such provision under the Higher Education Amendments of 1998.

Sec. 1099b. Recognition of accrediting agency or association

-STATUTE-

(a) Criteria required

No accrediting agency or association may be determined by the

Secretary to be a reliable authority as to the quality of education

or training offered for the purposes of this chapter or for other

Federal purposes, unless the agency or association meets criteria

established by the Secretary pursuant to this section. The

Secretary shall, after notice and opportunity for a hearing,

establish criteria for such determinations. Such criteria shall

include an appropriate measure or measures of student achievement.

Such criteria shall require that -

(1) the accrediting agency or association shall be a State,

regional, or national agency or association and shall demonstrate

the ability and the experience to operate as an accrediting

agency or association within the State, region, or nationally, as

appropriate;

(2) such agency or association -

(A)(i) for the purpose of participation in programs under

this chapter, has a voluntary membership of institutions of

higher education and has as a principal purpose the accrediting

of institutions of higher education; or

(ii) for the purpose of participation in other programs

administered by the Department of Education or other Federal

agencies, has a voluntary membership and has as its principal

purpose the accrediting of institutions of higher education or

programs;

(B) is a State agency approved by the Secretary for the

purpose described in subparagraph (A); or

(C) is an agency or association that, for the purpose of

determining eligibility for student assistance under this

subchapter and part C of subchapter I of chapter 34 of title

42, conducts accreditation through (i) a voluntary membership

organization of individuals participating in a profession, or

(ii) an agency or association which has as its principal

purpose the accreditation of programs within institutions,

which institutions are accredited by another agency or

association recognized by the Secretary;

(3) if such agency or association is an agency or association

described in -

(A) subparagraph (A)(i) of paragraph (2), then such agency or

association is separate and independent, both administratively

and financially of any related, associated, or affiliated trade

association or membership organization;

(B) subparagraph (B) of paragraph (2), then such agency or

association has been recognized by the Secretary on or before

October 1, 1991; or

(C) subparagraph (C) of paragraph (2) and such agency or

association has been recognized by the Secretary on or before

October 1, 1991, then the Secretary may waive the requirement

that such agency or association is separate and independent,

both administratively and financially of any related,

associated, or affiliated trade association or membership

organization upon a demonstration that the existing

relationship has not served to compromise the independence of

its accreditation process;

(4) such agency or association consistently applies and

enforces standards that ensure that the courses or programs of

instruction, training, or study offered by the institution of

higher education, including distance education courses or

programs, are of sufficient quality to achieve, for the duration

of the accreditation period, the stated objective for which the

courses or the programs are offered;

(5) the standards for accreditation of the agency or

association assess the institution's -

(A) success with respect to student achievement in relation

to the institution's mission, including, as appropriate,

consideration of course completion, State licensing

examinations, and job placement rates;

(B) curricula;

(C) faculty;

(D) facilities, equipment, and supplies;

(E) fiscal and administrative capacity as appropriate to the

specified scale of operations;

(F) student support services;

(G) recruiting and admissions practices, academic calendars,

catalogs, publications, grading and advertising;

(H) measures of program length and the objectives of the

degrees or credentials offered;

(I) record of student complaints received by, or available

to, the agency or association; and

(J) record of compliance with its program responsibilities

under this subchapter and part C of subchapter I of chapter 34

of title 42 based on the most recent student loan default rate

data provided by the Secretary, the results of financial or

compliance audits, program reviews, and such other information

as the Secretary may provide to the agency or association;

except that subparagraphs (A), (H), and (J) shall not apply to

agencies or associations described in paragraph (2)(A)(ii) of

this subsection;

(6) such agency or association shall apply procedures

throughout the accrediting process, including evaluation and

withdrawal proceedings, that comply with due process, including -

(A) adequate specification of requirements and deficiencies

at the institution of higher education or program being

examined;

(B) notice of an opportunity for a hearing by any such

institution;

(C) the right to appeal any adverse action against any such

institution; and

(D) the right to representation by counsel for any such

institution;

(7) such agency or association shall notify the Secretary and

the appropriate State licensing or authorizing agency within 30

days of the accreditation of an institution or any final denial,

withdrawal, suspension, or termination of accreditation or

placement on probation of an institution, together with any other

adverse action taken with respect to an institution; and

(8) such agency or association shall make available to the

public, upon request, and to the Secretary, and the State

licensing or authorizing agency a summary of any review resulting

in a final accrediting decision involving denial, termination, or

suspension of accreditation, together with the comments of the

affected institution.

(b) ''Separate and independent'' defined

For the purpose of subsection (a)(3) of this section, the term

''separate and independent'' means that -

(1) the members of the postsecondary education governing body

of the accrediting agency or association are not elected or

selected by the board or chief executive officer of any related,

associated, or affiliated trade association or membership

organization;

(2) among the membership of the board of the accrediting agency

or association there shall be one public member (who is not a

member of any related trade or membership organization) for each

six members of the board, with a minimum of one such public

member, and guidelines are established for such members to avoid

conflicts of interest;

(3) dues to the accrediting agency or association are paid

separately from any dues paid to any related, associated, or

affiliated trade association or membership organization; and

(4) the budget of the accrediting agency or association is

developed and determined by the accrediting agency or association

without review or resort to consultation with any other entity or

organization.

(c) Operating procedures required

No accrediting agency or association may be recognized by the

Secretary as a reliable authority as to the quality of education or

training offered by an institution seeking to participate in the

programs authorized under this subchapter and part C of subchapter

I of chapter 34 of title 42, unless the agency or association -

(1) performs, at regularly established intervals, on-site

inspections and reviews of institutions of higher education

(which may include unannounced site visits) with particular focus

on educational quality and program effectiveness, and ensures

that accreditation team members are well-trained and

knowledgeable with respect to their responsibilities;

(2) requires that any institution of higher education subject

to its jurisdiction which plans to establish a branch campus

submit a business plan, including projected revenues and

expenditures, prior to opening the branch campus;

(3) agrees to conduct, as soon as practicable, but within a

period of not more than 6 months of the establishment of a new

branch campus or a change of ownership of an institution of

higher education, an on-site visit of that branch campus or of

the institution after a change of ownership;

(4) requires that teach-out agreements among institutions are

subject to approval by the accrediting agency or association

consistent with standards promulgated by such agency or

association;

No accrediting agency or association may be recognized by the

Secretary for the purpose of this chapter for a period of more than

5 years.

The Secretary may not recognize the accreditation of any

institution of higher education unless the institution of higher

education agrees to submit any dispute involving the final denial,

withdrawal, or termination of accreditation to initial arbitration

prior to any other legal action.

(f) Jurisdiction

Notwithstanding any other provision of law, any civil action

brought by an institution of higher education seeking accreditation

from, or accredited by, an accrediting agency or association

recognized by the Secretary for the purpose of this subchapter and

part C of subchapter I of chapter 34 of title 42 and involving the

denial, withdrawal, or termination of accreditation of the

institution of higher education, shall be brought in the

appropriate United States district court.

(g) Limitation on scope of criteria

Nothing in this chapter shall be construed to permit the

Secretary to establish criteria for accrediting agencies or

associations that are not required by this section. Nothing in

this chapter shall be construed to prohibit or limit any

accrediting agency or association from adopting additional

standards not provided for in this section.

(h) Change of accrediting agency

The Secretary shall not recognize the accreditation of any

otherwise eligible institution of higher education if the

institution of higher education is in the process of changing its

accrediting agency or association, unless the eligible institution

submits to the Secretary all materials relating to the prior

accreditation, including materials demonstrating reasonable cause

for changing the accrediting agency or association.

(i) Dual accreditation rule

The Secretary shall not recognize the accreditation of any

otherwise eligible institution of higher education if the

institution of higher education is accredited, as an institution,

by more than one accrediting agency or association, unless the

institution submits to each such agency and association and to the

Secretary the reasons for accreditation by more than one such

agency or association and demonstrates to the Secretary reasonable

cause for its accreditation by more than one agency or

association. If the institution is accredited, as an institution,

by more than one accrediting agency or association, the institution

shall designate which agency's accreditation shall be utilized in

determining the institution's eligibility for programs under this

chapter.

(j) Impact of loss of accreditation

An institution may not be certified or recertified as an

institution of higher education under section 1002 of this title

and subpart 3 of this part or participate in any of the other

programs authorized by this chapter if such institution -

(1) is not currently accredited by any agency or association

recognized by the Secretary;

(2) has had its accreditation withdrawn, revoked, or otherwise

terminated for cause during the preceding 24 months, unless such

withdrawal, revocation, or termination has been rescinded by the

same accrediting agency; or

(3) has withdrawn from accreditation voluntarily under a show

cause or suspension order during the preceding 24 months, unless

such order has been rescinded by the same accrediting agency.

(k) Religious institution rule

Notwithstanding subsection (j) of this section, the Secretary

shall allow an institution that has had its accreditation

withdrawn, revoked, or otherwise terminated, or has voluntarily

withdrawn from an accreditation agency, to remain certified as an

institution of higher education under section 1002 of this title

and subpart 3 of this part for a period sufficient to allow such

institution to obtain alternative accreditation, if the Secretary

determines that the reason for the withdrawal, revocation, or

termination -

(1) is related to the religious mission or affiliation of the

institution; and

(2) is not related to the accreditation criteria provided for

in this section.

(l) Limitation, suspension, or termination of recognition

(1) If the Secretary determines that an accrediting agency or

association has failed to apply effectively the criteria in this

section, or is otherwise not in compliance with the requirements of

this section, the Secretary shall -

(A) after notice and opportunity for a hearing, limit, suspend,

or terminate the recognition of the agency or association; or

(B) require the agency or association to take appropriate

action to bring the agency or association into compliance with

such requirements within a timeframe specified by the Secretary,

except that -

(i) such timeframe shall not exceed 12 months unless the

Secretary extends such period for good cause; and

(ii) if the agency or association fails to bring the agency

or association into compliance within such timeframe, the

Secretary shall, after notice and opportunity for a hearing,

limit, suspend, or terminate the recognition of the agency or

association.

(2) The Secretary may determine that an accrediting agency or

association has failed to apply effectively the standards provided

in this section if an institution of higher education seeks and

receives accreditation from the accrediting agency or association

during any period in which the institution is the subject of any

interim action by another accrediting agency or association,

described in paragraph (2)(A)(i), (2)(B), or (2)(C) of subsection

(a) of this section, leading to the suspension, revocation, or

termination of accreditation or the institution has been notified

of the threatened loss of accreditation, and the due process

procedures required by such suspension, revocation, termination, or

threatened loss have not been completed.

(m) Limitation on Secretary's authority

The Secretary may only recognize accrediting agencies or

associations which accredit institutions of higher education for

the purpose of enabling such institutions to establish eligibility

to participate in the programs under this chapter or which accredit

institutions of higher education or higher education programs for

the purpose of enabling them to establish eligibility to

participate in other programs administered by the Department of

Education or other Federal agencies.

(n) Independent evaluation

(1) The Secretary shall conduct a comprehensive review and

evaluation of the performance of all accrediting agencies or

associations which seek recognition by the Secretary in order to

determine whether such accrediting agencies or associations meet

the criteria established by this section. The Secretary shall

conduct an independent evaluation of the information provided by

such agency or association. Such evaluation shall include -

(A) the solicitation of third-party information concerning the

performance of the accrediting agency or association; and

(B) site visits, including unannounced site visits as

appropriate, at accrediting agencies and associations, and, at

the Secretary's discretion, at representative member

institutions.

(2) The Secretary shall place a priority for review of

accrediting agencies or associations on those agencies or

associations that accredit institutions of higher education that

participate most extensively in the programs authorized by this

subchapter and part C of subchapter I of chapter 34 of title 42 and

on those agencies or associations which have been the subject of

the most complaints or legal actions.

(3) The Secretary shall consider all available relevant

information concerning the compliance of the accrediting agency or

association with the criteria provided for in this section,

including any complaints or legal actions against such agency or

association. In cases where deficiencies in the performance of an

accreditation agency or association with respect to the

requirements of this section are noted, the Secretary shall take

these deficiencies into account in the recognition process. The

Secretary shall not, under any circumstances, base decisions on the

recognition or denial of recognition of accreditation agencies or

associations on criteria other than those contained in this

section. When the Secretary decides to recognize an accrediting

agency or association, the Secretary shall determine the agency or

association's scope of recognition. If the agency or association

reviews institutions offering distance education courses or

programs and the Secretary determines that the agency or

association meets the requirements of this section, then the agency

shall be recognized and the scope of recognition shall include

accreditation of institutions offering distance education courses

or programs.

(4) The Secretary shall maintain sufficient documentation to

support the conclusions reached in the recognition process, and, if

the Secretary does not recognize any accreditation agency or

association, shall make publicly available the reason for denying

recognition, including reference to the specific criteria under

this section which have not been fulfilled.

(o) Regulations

The Secretary shall by regulation provide procedures for the

recognition of accrediting agencies or associations and for the

appeal of the Secretary's decisions.

For purposes of qualifying institutions of higher education for

determine the legal authority to operate within a State, the

accreditation status, and the administrative capability and

financial responsibility of an institution of higher education in

accordance with the requirements of this section.

(b) Single application form

The Secretary shall prepare and prescribe a single application

form which -

(1) requires sufficient information and documentation to

determine that the requirements of eligibility, accreditation,

financial responsibility, and administrative capability of the

institution of higher education are met;

(2) requires a specific description of the relationship between

a main campus of an institution of higher education and all of

its branches, including a description of the student aid

processing that is performed by the main campus and that which is

performed at its branches;

(3) requires -

(A) a description of the third party servicers of an

institution of higher education; and

(B) the institution to maintain a copy of any contract with a

financial aid service provider or loan servicer, and provide a

will ensure compliance with the requirements of this subchapter

and part C of subchapter I of chapter 34 of title 42 with respect

to eligibility, accreditation, administrative capability and

financial responsibility; and

(5) provides, at the option of the institution, for

participation in one or more of the programs under part B or C of

this subchapter.

(c) Financial responsibility standards

(1) The Secretary shall determine whether an institution has the

financial responsibility required by this subchapter and part C of

subchapter I of chapter 34 of title 42 on the basis of whether the

institution is able -

(A) to provide the services described in its official

publications and statements;

(B) to provide the administrative resources necessary to comply

with the requirements of this subchapter and part C of subchapter

I of chapter 34 of title 42; and

(C) to meet all of its financial obligations, including (but

not limited to) refunds of institutional charges and repayments

to the Secretary for liabilities and debts incurred in programs

administered by the Secretary.

(2) Notwithstanding paragraph (1), if an institution fails to

meet criteria prescribed by the Secretary regarding ratios that

demonstrate financial responsibility, then the institution shall

provide the Secretary with satisfactory evidence of its financial

responsibility in accordance with paragraph (3). Such criteria

shall take into account any differences in generally accepted

accounting principles, and the financial statements required

thereunder, that are applicable to for profit, public, and

nonprofit institutions. The Secretary shall take into account an

institution's total financial circumstances in making a

determination of its ability to meet the standards herein required.

(3) The Secretary shall determine an institution to be

financially responsible, notwithstanding the institution's failure

to meet the criteria under paragraphs (1) and (2), if -

(A) such institution submits to the Secretary third-party

financial guarantees that the Secretary determines are

reasonable, such as performance bonds or letters of credit

payable to the Secretary, which third-party financial guarantees

shall equal not less than one-half of the annual potential

liabilities of such institution to the Secretary for funds under

this subchapter and part C of subchapter I of chapter 34 of title

42, including loan obligations discharged pursuant to section

1087 of this title, and to students for refunds of institutional

charges, including funds under this subchapter and part C of

subchapter I of chapter 34 of title 42;

(B) such institution has its liabilities backed by the full

faith and credit of a State, or its equivalent;

(C) such institution establishes to the satisfaction of the

Secretary, with the support of a financial statement audited by

an independent certified public accountant in accordance with

generally accepted auditing standards, that the institution has

sufficient resources to ensure against the precipitous closure of

the institution, including the ability to meet all of its

financial obligations (including refunds of institutional charges

and repayments to the Secretary for liabilities and debts

incurred in programs administered by the Secretary); or

(D) such institution has met standards of financial

responsibility, prescribed by the Secretary by regulation, that

indicate a level of financial strength not less than those

required in paragraph (2).

(4) If an institution of higher education that provides a 2-year

or 4-year program of instruction for which the institution awards

an associate or baccalaureate degree fails to meet the criteria

imposed by the Secretary pursuant to paragraph (2), the Secretary

shall waive that particular requirement for that institution if the

institution demonstrates to the satisfaction of the Secretary that

-

(A) there is no reasonable doubt as to its continued solvency

and ability to deliver quality educational services;

(B) it is current in its payment of all current liabilities,

including student refunds, repayments to the Secretary, payroll,

and payment of trade creditors and withholding taxes; and

(C) it has substantial equity in school-occupied facilities,

the acquisition of which was the direct cause of its failure to

meet the criteria.

(5) The determination as to whether an institution has met the

standards of financial responsibility provided for in paragraphs

(2) and (3)(C) shall be based on an audited and certified financial

statement of the institution. Such audit shall be conducted by a

qualified independent organization or person in accordance with

standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public

Accountants. Such statement shall be submitted to the Secretary at

the time such institution is considered for certification or

recertification under this section. If the institution is

permitted to be certified (provisionally or otherwise) and such

audit does not establish compliance with paragraph (2), the

Secretary may require that additional audits be submitted.

(6)(A) The Secretary shall establish requirements for the

maintenance by an institution of higher education of sufficient

cash reserves to ensure repayment of any required refunds.

(B) The Secretary shall provide for a process under which the

Secretary shall exempt an institution of higher education from the

requirements described in subparagraph (A) if the Secretary

determines that the institution -

(i) is located in a State that has a tuition recovery fund that

ensures that the institution meets the requirements of

subparagraph (A);

(ii) contributes to the fund; and

(iii) otherwise has legal authority to operate within the

State.

(d) Administrative capacity standard

The Secretary is authorized -

(1) to establish procedures and requirements relating to the

administrative capacities of institutions of higher education,

including -

(A) consideration of past performance of institutions or

persons in control of such institutions with respect to student

aid programs; and

(B) maintenance of records;

(2) to establish such other reasonable procedures as the

Secretary determines will contribute to ensuring that the

institution of higher education will comply with administrative

capability required by this subchapter and part C of subchapter I

of chapter 34 of title 42.

(e) Financial guarantees from owners

(1) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the Secretary

may, to the extent necessary to protect the financial interest of

the United States, require -

(A) financial guarantees from an institution participating, or

seeking to participate, in a program under this subchapter and

part C of subchapter I of chapter 34 of title 42, or from one or

more individuals who the Secretary determines, in accordance with

paragraph (2), exercise substantial control over such

institution, or both, in an amount determined by the Secretary to

be sufficient to satisfy the institution's potential liability to

the Federal Government, student assistance recipients, and other

program participants for funds under this subchapter and part C

of subchapter I of chapter 34 of title 42; and

(B) the assumption of personal liability, by one or more

individuals who exercise substantial control over such

institution, as determined by the Secretary in accordance with

paragraph (2), for financial losses to the Federal Government,

student assistance recipients, and other program participants for

funds under this subchapter and part C of subchapter I of chapter

34 of title 42, and civil and criminal monetary penalties

authorized under this subchapter and part C of subchapter I of

chapter 34 of title 42.

(2)(A) The Secretary may determine that an individual exercises

substantial control over one or more institutions participating in

a program under this subchapter and part C of subchapter I of

chapter 34 of title 42 if the Secretary determines that -

(i) the individual directly or indirectly controls a

substantial ownership interest in the institution;

(ii) the individual, either alone or together with other

individuals, represents, under a voting trust, power of attorney,

proxy, or similar agreement, one or more persons who have,

individually or in combination with the other persons represented

or the individual representing them, a substantial ownership

interest in the institution; or

(iii) the individual is a member of the board of directors, the

chief executive officer, or other executive officer of the

institution or of an entity that holds a substantial ownership

interest in the institution.

(B) The Secretary may determine that an entity exercises

substantial control over one or more institutions participating in

a program under this subchapter and part C of subchapter I of

chapter 34 of title 42 if the Secretary determines that the entity

directly or indirectly holds a substantial ownership interest in

the institution.

(3) For purposes of this subsection, an ownership interest is

defined as a share of the legal or beneficial ownership or control

(B) has not had, during its 2 most recent audits of the

institutions conduct of programs under this subchapter and part C

any manner to evade payment of such refund,

shall, in addition to other penalties provided by law, be liable to

the Secretary for the amount of the refund not paid, to the same

shall establish priorities by which institutions are to receive

site visits, and shall, to the extent practicable, coordinate such

institution; or

(iii) the Secretary determines that an institution that seeks

to renew its certification is, in the judgment of the

Secretary, in an administrative or financial condition that may

jeopardize its ability to perform its financial

responsibilities under a program participation agreement.

(2) Whenever the Secretary withdraws the recognition of any

accrediting agency, an institution of higher education which meets

the requirements of accreditation, eligibility, and certification

on the day prior to such withdrawal, the Secretary may,

notwithstanding the withdrawal, continue the eligibility of the

institution of higher education to participate in the programs

authorized by this subchapter and part C of subchapter I of chapter

34 of title 42 for a period not to exceed 18 months from the date

of the withdrawal of recognition.

institution's participation in programs under this subchapter and

part C of subchapter I of chapter 34 of title 42.

(1) An eligible institution of higher education that has had a

change in ownership resulting in a change of control shall not

qualify to participate in programs under this subchapter and part C

of subchapter I of chapter 34 of title 42 after the change in

control (except as provided in paragraph (3)) unless it establishes

that it meets the requirements of section 1002 of this title (other

than the requirements in subsections (b)(5) and (c)(3) (FOOTNOTE 1)

) and this section after such change in control.

(FOOTNOTE 1) See References in Text note below.

(2) An action resulting in a change in control may include (but

business practice.

(4)(A) The Secretary may provisionally certify an institution

seeking approval of a change in ownership based on the preliminary

review by the Secretary of a materially complete application that

is received by the Secretary within 10 business days of the

transaction for which the approval is sought.

(B) A provisional certification under this paragraph shall expire

not later than the end of the month following the month in which

the transaction occurred, except that if the Secretary has not

issued a decision on the application for the change of ownership

within that period, the Secretary may continue such provisional

certification on a month-to-month basis until such decision has

been issued.

(j) Treatment of branches

(1) A branch of an eligible institution of higher education, as

defined pursuant to regulations of the Secretary, shall be

certified under this subpart before it may participate as part of

such institution in a program under this subchapter and part C of

subchapter I of chapter 34 of title 42, except that such branch

shall not be required to meet the requirements of sections

1002(b)(1)(E) and 1002(c)(1)(C) of this title prior to seeking such

certification. Such branch is required to be in existence at least

2 years after the branch is certified by the Secretary as a branch

campus participating in a program under this subchapter and part C

of subchapter I of chapter 34 of title 42, prior to seeking

certification as a main campus or free-standing institution.

(2) The Secretary may waive the requirement of section 1001(a)(2)

of this title for a branch that (A) is not located in a State, (B)

is affiliated with an eligible institution, and (C) was

Sec. 1101. Findings; purpose; and program authority

-STATUTE-

(a) Findings

Congress makes the following findings:

(1) Hispanic Americans are at high risk of not enrolling or

graduating from institutions of higher education.

(2) Disparities between the enrollment of non-Hispanic white

students and Hispanic students in postsecondary education are

increasing. Between 1973 and 1994, enrollment of white secondary

school graduates in 4-year institutions of higher education

increased at a rate two times higher than that of Hispanic

secondary school graduates.

(3) Despite significant limitations in resources,

Hispanic-serving institutions provide a significant proportion of

postsecondary opportunities for Hispanic students.

(4) Relative to other institutions of higher education,

Hispanic-serving institutions are underfunded. Such institutions

receive significantly less in State and local funding, per

full-time equivalent student, than other institutions of higher

education.

(5) Hispanic-serving institutions are succeeding in educating

Hispanic students despite significant resource problems that -

(A) limit the ability of such institutions to expand and

improve the academic programs of such institutions; and

(B) could imperil the financial and administrative stability

of such institutions.

(6) There is a national interest in remedying the disparities

described in paragraphs (2) and (4) and ensuring that Hispanic

students have an equal opportunity to pursue postsecondary

opportunities.

(b) Purpose

The purpose of this subchapter is to -

(1) expand educational opportunities for, and improve the

academic attainment of, Hispanic students; and

(2) expand and enhance the academic offerings, program quality,

and institutional stability of colleges and universities that are

educating the majority of Hispanic college students and helping

large numbers of Hispanic students and other low-income

individuals complete postsecondary degrees.

(c) Program authority

The Secretary shall provide grants and related assistance to

Hispanic-serving institutions to enable such institutions to

improve and expand their capacity to serve Hispanic students and

other low-income individuals.

regional and global problems make knowledge of other countries

and the ability to communicate in other languages more essential

to the promotion of mutual understanding and cooperation among

nations and their peoples.

(3) Dramatic post-Cold War changes in the world's geopolitical

and economic landscapes are creating needs for American expertise

and knowledge about a greater diversity of less commonly taught

foreign languages and nations of the world.

institutions of higher education, and the private sector are

necessary to promote the generation and dissemination of

information about world regions, foreign languages, and

international affairs throughout education, government, business,

civic, and nonprofit sectors in the United States.

(b) Purposes

The purposes of this part are -

(1)(A) to support centers, programs, and fellowships in

(a) Findings

The Congress finds that -

(1) the future economic welfare of the United States will

depend substantially on increasing international skills in the

business and educational community and creating an awareness

among the American public of the internationalization of our

economy;

language and area study programs, professional international

affairs education programs, public and private sector

organizations, and United States business in a mutually

productive relationship which benefits the Nation's future

economic interests;

(3) few linkages presently exist between the manpower and

information needs of United States business and the international

education, language training and research capacities of

institutions of higher education in the United States, and public

and private organizations; and

(4) organizations such as world trade councils, world trade

clubs, chambers of commerce and State departments of commerce are

not adequately used to link universities and business for joint

venture exploration and program development.

(b) Purposes

It is the purpose of this part -

(1) to enhance the broad objective of this chapter by

increasing and promoting the Nation's capacity for international

understanding and economic enterprise through the provision of

suitable international education and training for business

personnel in various stages of professional development; and

(2) to promote institutional and noninstitutional educational

and training activities that will contribute to the ability of

United States business to prosper in an international economy.

succeeding academic year, such stipend shall be set at a level of

support equal to that provided by the National Science Foundation

payable to an institution by the Secretary pursuant to this

subsection shall not be reduced for any purpose other than the

degree in order to enable such institutions to provide assistance

to graduate students in accordance with this subpart.

(2) Additional grants

The Secretary may also make grants to such departments,

programs and other academic units of institutions of higher

education granting graduate degrees which submit joint proposals

involving nondegree granting institutions which have formal

arrangements for the support of doctoral dissertation research

with degree-granting institutions. Nondegree granting

institutions eligible for awards as part of such joint proposals

which the students are enrolled; and

(E) has necessary research resources not otherwise readily

available in such institutions to such students.

(b) Award and duration of grants

(1) Awards

The principal criterion for the award of grants shall be the

relative quality of the graduate programs presented in competing

applications. Consistent with an allocation of awards based on

quality of competing applications, the Secretary shall, in

awarding such grants, promote an equitable geographic

distribution among eligible public and private institutions of

higher education.

(2) Duration and amount

(A) Duration

The Secretary shall award a grant under this subpart for a

this subpart for a fiscal year in an amount that is not less

than $100,000 and not greater than $750,000.

(3) Reallotment

Whenever the Secretary determines that an academic department,

program or unit of an institution of higher education is unable

to use all of the amounts available to the department, program or

unit under this subpart, the Secretary shall, on such dates

during each fiscal year as the Secretary may fix, reallot the

amounts not needed to academic departments, programs and units of

institutions which can use the grants authorized by this subpart.

(c) Preference to continuing grant recipients

(1) In general

The Secretary shall make new grant awards under this subpart

only to the extent that each previous grant recipient under this

subpart has received continued funding in accordance with

subsection (b)(2)(A) of this section.

(2) Ratable reduction

To the extent that appropriations under this subpart are

insufficient to comply with paragraph (1), available funds shall

SUBCHAPTER VII - GRADUATE AND POSTSECONDARY IMPROVEMENT PROGRAMS

Part A - Graduate Education Programs

subpart 2 - graduate assistance in areas of national need

-HEAD-

Sec. 1135c. Awards to graduate students

-STATUTE-

(a) Commitments to graduate students

(1) In general

An academic department, program or unit of an institution of

higher education shall make commitments to graduate students who

are eligible students under section 1091 of this title (including

students pursuing a doctoral degree after having completed a

master's degree program at an institution of higher education) at

any point in their graduate study to provide stipends for the

length of time necessary for a student to complete the course of

graduate study, but in no case longer than 5 years.

(2) Special rule

No such commitments shall be made to students under this

subpart unless the academic department, program or unit has

determined adequate funds are available to fulfill the commitment

from funds received or anticipated under this subpart, or from

institutional funds.

(b) Amount of stipends

The Secretary shall make payments to institutions of higher

education for the purpose of paying stipends to individuals who are

awarded fellowships under this subpart. The stipends the Secretary

establishes shall reflect the purpose of the program under this

subpart to encourage highly talented students to undertake graduate

study as described in this subpart. In the case of an individual

who receives such individual's first stipend under this subpart in

academic year 1999-2000 or any succeeding academic year, such

stipend shall be set at a level of support equal to that provided

by the National Science Foundation graduate fellowships, except

such amount shall be adjusted as necessary so as not to exceed the

fellow's demonstrated level of need as determined under part E of

subchapter IV of this chapter.

(c) Treatment of institutional payments

An institution of higher education that makes institutional

payments for tuition and fees on behalf of individuals supported by

fellowships under this subpart in amounts that exceed the

institutional payments made by the Secretary pursuant to section

1135d(a) (FOOTNOTE 1) of this title may count such excess toward

the amounts the institution is required to provide pursuant to

section 1135b(b)(2) (FOOTNOTE 1) of this title.

(FOOTNOTE 1) See References in Text note below.

(d) Academic progress required

Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (a) of this section,

no student shall receive an award -

(1) except during periods in which such student is maintaining

satisfactory progress in, and devoting essentially full time to,

study or research in the field in which such fellowship was

awarded; or

(2) if the student is engaging in gainful employment other than

part-time employment involved in teaching, research, or similar

activities determined by the institution to be in support of the

student's progress towards a degree.

-REFTEXT-

REFERENCES IN TEXT

Section 1135d(a) of this title, referred to in subsec. (c), was

in the original ''section 716(a)'', meaning section 716(a) of Pub.

L. 89-329, which was translated as reading section 715(a) of that

Act to reflect the probable intent of Congress, because section

715(a) relates to institutional payments, and section 716, which is

classified to section 1135e of this title, does not relate to

institutional payments and does not contain a subsec. (a).

Section 1135b(b)(2) of this title, referred to in subsec. (c),

was in the original ''section 714(b)(2)'', meaning section

714(b)(2) of Pub. L. 89-329, which was translated as reading

section 713(b)(2) of that Act to reflect the probable intent of

Congress, because section 713(b)(2) relates to amounts that

institutions are required to provide from non-Federal sources, and

section 714, which is classified to this section, does not relate

to amounts that institutions are required to provide and does not

contain a subsec. (b)(2).

-STATUTE-

The Congress finds that -

(1) the Nation's urban centers are facing increasingly pressing

problems and needs in the areas of economic development,

community infrastructure and service, social policy, public

health, housing, crime, education, environmental concerns,

planning and work force preparation;

(2) there are, in the Nation's urban institutions, people with

underutilized skills, knowledge, and experience who are capable

of providing a vast range of services toward the amelioration of

the problems described in paragraph (1);

(3) the skills, knowledge and experience in these urban

institutions, if applied in a systematic and sustained manner,

can make a significant contribution to the solution of such

problems; and

(4) the application of such skills, knowledge and experience is

hindered by the limited funds available to redirect attention to

solutions to such urban problems.

incarcerated in the Nation's jails, juvenile facilities, and

prisons.

(2) Most youth offenders who are incarcerated have been

sentenced as first-time adult felons.

(3) Approximately 75 percent of youth offenders are high school

dropouts who lack basic literacy and life skills, have little or

no job experience, and lack marketable skills.

(4) The average incarcerated youth has attended school only

through grade 10.

(5) Most of these youths can be diverted from a life of crime

into productive citizenship with available educational,

vocational, work skills, and related service programs.

(6) If not involved with educational programs while

incarcerated, almost all of these youths will return to a life of

crime upon release.

(7) The average length of sentence for a youth offender is

about 3 years. Time spent in prison provides a unique

opportunity for education and training.

(8) Even with quality education and training provided during

incarceration, a period of intense supervision, support, and

counseling is needed upon release to ensure effective

reintegration of youth offenders into society.

(9) Research consistently shows that the vast majority of

incarcerated youths will not return to the public schools to

complete their education.

(10) There is a need for alternative educational opportunities

during incarceration and after release.

(b) ''Youth offender'' defined

For purposes of this section, the term ''youth offender'' means a

male or female offender under the age of 25, who is incarcerated in

a State prison, including a prerelease facility.

(c) Grant program

The Secretary of Education (in this section referred to as the

''Secretary'') shall establish a program in accordance with this

section to provide grants to the State correctional education

agencies in the States, from allocations for the States under

subsection (i) of this section, to assist and encourage

incarcerated youths to acquire functional literacy, life, and job

skills, through the pursuit of a postsecondary education

certificate, or an associate of arts or bachelor's degree while in

prison, and employment counseling and other related services which

start during incarceration and continue through prerelease and

while on parole.

(d) Application

To be eligible for a grant under this section, a State

correctional education agency shall submit to the Secretary a

proposal for a youth offender program that -

(1) identifies the scope of the problem, including the number

of incarcerated youths in need of postsecondary education and

vocational training;

(2) lists the accredited public or private educational

institution or institutions that will provide postsecondary

educational services;

(3) lists the cooperating agencies, public and private, or

businesses that will provide related services, such as counseling

in the areas of career development, substance abuse, health, and

that the State correctional education agency will employ, which

methods and measures -

(A) shall be appropriate to meet the goals and objectives of

the proposal; and

(B) shall include measures of -

(i) program completion;

(ii) student academic and vocational skill attainment;

(iii) success in job placement and retention; and

(iv) recidivism;

(5) describes how the proposed programs are to be integrated

with existing State correctional education programs (such as

adult education, graduate education degree programs, and

vocational training) and State industry programs;

(6) addresses the educational needs of youth offenders who are

in alternative programs (such as boot camps); and

(7) describes how students will be selected so that only youth

offenders eligible under subsection (f) of this section will be

enrolled in postsecondary programs.

(e) Program requirements

Each State correctional education agency receiving a grant under

this section shall -

(1) integrate activities carried out under the grant with the

objectives and activities of the school-to-work programs of such

State, including -

(A) work experience or apprenticeship programs;

(B) transitional worksite job training for vocational

education students that is related to the occupational goals of

such students and closely linked to classroom and laboratory

instruction;

(C) placement services in occupations that the students are

preparing to enter;

(D) employment-based learning programs; and

(E) programs that address State and local labor shortages;

(2) annually report to the Secretary and the Attorney General

on the results of the evaluations conducted using the methods and

performance measures contained in the proposal; and

(3) provide to each State for each student eligible under

subsection (f) of this section not more than $1,500 annually for

tuition, books, and essential materials, and not more than $300

annually for related services such as career development,

substance abuse counseling, parenting skills training, and health

education, for each eligible incarcerated youth.

(f) Student eligibility

A youth offender shall be eligible for participation in a program

receiving a grant under this section if the youth offender -

(1) is eligible to be released within 5 years (including a

youth offender who is eligible for parole within such time); and

the period of incarceration in prison or prerelease and may

continue during the period of parole.

(h) Education delivery systems

State correctional education agencies and cooperating

institutions shall, to the extent practicable, use high-tech

applications in developing programs to meet the requirements and

goals of this section.

(i) Allocation of funds

From the funds appropriated pursuant to subsection (j) of this

section for each fiscal year, the Secretary shall allot to each

the total number of students eligible under subsection (f) of this

section in such State bears to the total number of such students in

all States.

(j) Authorization of appropriations

There are authorized to be appropriated to carry out this section

$17,000,000 for fiscal year 1999 and such sums as may be necessary

for each of the 4 succeeding fiscal years.
