The document is a board legal status document for the Houston Community College System. It outlines the powers, duties, and responsibilities of the Board in governing the college system. The Board is expected to preserve institutional independence, enhance the public image of the college, interpret the community to the campus and vice versa, and nurture the college to achieve its full potential. The document also mentions that all authority not vested by the state laws in the Coordinating Board or Central Education Agency is reserved and retained locally in the District or in the Board.
