17:2196.1      Findings and declaration of policy

  The Legislature of Louisiana hereby finds that the security and welfare of the State of Louisiana require that this and future generations of Louisiana be assured ample opportunity for the fullest development of their intellectual capabilities and that this opportunity will be jeopardized unless Louisiana's colleges and universities are encouraged and assisted in their efforts to accommodate rapidly growing numbers of youth who aspire to a higher education. The Louisiana Legislature further finds and declares that these needs are so great and these steps so urgent that it is incumbent on Louisiana to take positive and immediate action to meet these needs through assistance to institutions of higher education, including graduate and undergraduate institutions, junior and community colleges and technical institutes in providing certain academic facilities.
