Hon. Grover E. Murray, page 6
We now come to the question of the necessity of im-
plementing legislation to effectuate the initiation of the vet-
erinary degree program.
We are of the opinion that this question has been
conclusively settled by Attorney General's Opinion No. M-333
(1969), which held that the Board of Directors of Texas Tech-
nological College had the power to create a medical school at
that institution without the passage of implementing legislation.
See also Attorney General's Opinion No. M-365 (1969).
In view of the foregoing, your question is answered
in the affirmative.
SUM M AR Y
The Coordinating Board of the Texas College
and University System, pursuant to Article 2919e-2,
Vernon's Civil Statutes, may alter the role and
scope of the Texas Tech University Medical School,
and thereby order the initiation of a degree program
in veterinary medicine within that School.
Ve truly yours,
CRAWF C. MARTIN
Atto ey General of Texas
Prepared by Austin C. Bray, Jr.
Assistant Attorney General-3702-
