Effective immediately.

House Committee Amendment No. 1

Requires the administration of the Fund and the promulgation of rules to meet the requirements of the will of Petrea Therkelsen.

House Floor Amendment No. 2
Provides that the Superintendent of the Illinois School for the Deaf shall hold office (i) for a term expiring on June 30, 2015, and every 4 years thereafter and (ii) until the Superintendent's successor is appointed and qualified (rather than for a term of 4 years from the third Monday in January of each odd numbered year and until the officer's successor is appointed and qualified). Lowers the number of years of experience the Superintendent must have from 20 years to 15 years. Makes similar changes regarding the Superintendent of the Illinois School for the Visually Impaired.
