Plain-language change summary

The amendment establishes a communication campaign titled "30 Credits Per Year to Finish" directed by the Secretary of Higher Education. It outlines the use of various marketing media to promote this initiative and emphasizes direct outreach to students during course registration. The change removes previous directives for institutions to report on their strategies and incentives regarding student enrollment in 30 credits per year. This means the focus is now solely on communication efforts rather than requiring institutional reporting.
