Section 16-60-82 Legislative findings of fact and declaration of intent. The Legislature hereby
makes the following findings of fact and declares its intent to be as follows: The number
of students enrolled in trade schools and colleges supported wholly or in part by the state
has increased greatly during recent years. Further increases in enrollment are anticipated
because of the increased rate of births, the increased need for skilled workers and other
factors. In order to meet these needs and to provide residents of this state with the opportunity
to receive adequate instruction in the arts and sciences and in useful skills and trades,
it is imperative that junior colleges and additional trade schools be constructed, equipped
and operated. The tax revenues and other funds currently available for trade schools and junior
colleges are not sufficient to permit immediate outlays of the large amounts of capital necessary
for such construction and equipment and at the same time to permit...
