COMMISSION. (a) The Commission shall collect data on the
long-range effects of the Compact on higher education. By the end of

(2) years thereafter, the Commission shall review its accomplishments
and make recommendations to the governors and legislatures of the
compacting states on the continuance of the Compact.
(b) The Commission shall study issues in higher education of

also study the needs for higher education programs and services in
compacting states and the resources for meeting such needs. The
Commission shall from time to time prepare reports on such research
for presentation to the governors and legislatures of the compacting
states and other interested parties. In conducting such studies, the
Commission may confer with any national or regional planning body.

dealing with problems of higher education.

programs and services in higher education, such as undergraduate,

exchange in a field is apparent, the Commission may enter into such
agreements with any higher education institution and with any of the
compacting states to provide programs and services in higher education
for the citizens of the respective compacting states. The Commission
shall, after negotiations with interested institutions and the compacting
states, determine the costs of providing the programs and services in
higher education for use in its agreements. The contracting states shall
contribute the funds not otherwise provided, as determined by the
Commission, for carrying out the agreements. The Commission may

agreements for higher education programs and services.
(d) The Commission shall serve as a clearinghouse on information
regarding higher education activities among institutions and agencies.
