Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:

1. That § 23-168 of the Code of Virginia be amended and reenacted as
follows:

§ 23-168. The State Board of Education shall establish and operate
at the present site of the Norfolk Polytechnic College and/or on the prop-
erty of the Saint Vincent de Paul Hospital in the city of Norfolk or at such
other point or points as it may determine, a division of the Virginia State
College, to provide * college courses and such other courses of a vocational
and technical character, * as in the judgment of the Board may seem best
suited to the needs of the students and the area which it will serve. All
courses offered under the provisions of this section are to meet the normal
standards set by the Board.

The Board may accept on behalf of the Commonwealth under lease or
by conveyance such real estate, personal property, gifts, and grants, from
the city of Norfolk, from the Norfolk Polytechnic College or from other
agencies, as may, in its opinion, be useful and/or necessary in the organiza-
tion and operation of such division of the College as may be established
under this section.

For such purposes the city of Norfolk may convey or lease to the
Commonwealth without cost and on such terms and conditions as the
governing body of the city shall deem proper, the aforesaid real estate in
whole or in part and such other personal property, gifts and grants, as the
city’s governing body shall deem necessary and proper for such purposes.
