RELATIONS WITH GOVERNMENTAL AGENCIES AND AUTHORITIES: FEDERAL GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITIES

Military and Naval

Training

The governing board of any state-supported institution of higher

education, including a college district, may request the U.S. Department

of Defense to establish and maintain courses in military

and naval training qualifying male student graduates of the courses

for reserve commission awards as a part of its curriculum. The

board may enter into mutually agreeable contracts for that purpose.

The work of the students enrolling in the courses may be

credited toward degree requirements under regulations prescribed

by the board. Education Code 51.304

Intergovernmental

Support Agreements

with U.S. Armed

Forces

In accordance with the provisions that apply to an interlocal contract

under Government Code Chapter 791, a local government, including

a college district, may enter into an intergovernmental support

agreement with a branch of the armed forces of the United

States under the National Defense Authorization Act, 10 U.S.C.

2679, to provide installation-support services to a military installation

located in this state.

The term “installation-support services” means those services, supplies,

resources, and support typically provided by a local government

for its own needs and without regard to whether such services,

supplies, resources, and support are provided to its

residents generally, except that the term does not include security

guard or fire-fighting functions.
