The Issue
This act creates the "Mississippi University System Efficiency Task Force," which is tasked with examining the efficiency and effectiveness of the public university system in Mississippi.

The task force is required to develop recommendations for policy and law changes to increase the efficiency of the public university system. The membership, provisions for per diem and voting, and other related provisions are also outlined in the act.
