Television Stations

Educational and general funds appropriated in Article III of the General Appropriations Act (GAA) may not be expended for the acquisition, construction or operation of a television transmitter station.

However, this prohibition does not prohibit an institution of higher education from:

• Using closed-circuit television for purely instructional purposes.
• Using existing public broadcasting or transmitter stations for educational purposes.
• Continuing the operating arrangements the institution has with existing transmitter stations for purely educational purposes.
• Having cooperative arrangements with public broadcasting stations.
