The Constitution of the Commonwealth of Kentucky and the Kentucky Revised Statutes contain many general provisions under which the institutions and programs of public higher education along with the various other state agencies and programs are administered in Kentucky. Chapters 164 and 165 of the Kentucky Revised Statutes, however, contain those statutes specifically related to higher education and the state supported colleges and universities and are reproduced in their entirety. The statutes include provisions for areas such as the Council on Higher Education; state support for the University of Louisville; state payments to municipal junior colleges participating in the Occupational Qualification Development Program; requirements for university programs; qualifications for members of the Board of Trustees; physical training and discipline of students regulations; and appointment, salaries, and retirement benefits of university personnel.
