Digest
Provides that a child of a disabled veteran may be eligible for a tuition exemption if the person's mother or father served in the armed forces of the United States. (Current law requires the person's mother or father to serve in the armed forces of the United States during a war or perform duty equally hazardous that was recognized by the award of a service or campaign medal of the United States.) Repeals a provision that reduces a child of a disabled veteran tuition exemption if the individual's father or mother suffered a disability as determined by the United States Department of Veterans Affairs with a rating of less than 80%.
