The Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education shall make a study to determine the feasibility of changing the functions of Murray State College of Agriculture and Applied Science to give predominant emphasis to technical education while retaining the normal two-year junior college academic program. If the State Regents determine that the change should be made, they shall issue a proclamation declaring the change in the functions of the college and specifying the effective date. Thereafter, the official name of the college shall be Murray State College of Technology; there shall be created a Board of Regents of Murray State College of Technology as provided in Section 2 of this act; and all governing control of and property, assets and obligations of the Murray State College of Agriculture and Applied Science shall be transferred to the Board of Regents of the Murray State College of Technology. Copies of the proclamation shall be filed with the Governor, the Secretary of State, and the Secretary of the Board of Regents for the Oklahoma Agricultural and Mechanical Colleges.
