        262.91  LEGISLATIVE INTENT.
         The general assembly recognizes that universities must provide an
      environment that enables all students to have an equal opportunity to
      succeed.  The general assembly also recognizes that, because of
      inequalities in educational preparation, economic factors, and social
      circumstances, not all young Iowans have the same degree of access to
      Iowa's higher education system.  The general assembly further
      acknowledges that an early intervention system using public school
      districts, community agencies, and other state institutions can be
      useful in preparing young students to succeed in college.  Therefore,
      the "College-bound" program is established to ensure that the state's
      universities and students' local communities become involved early in
      a student's life by promoting and informing students about the
      opportunities in higher education, so that lack of adequate personal
      resources is not a barrier to attending college for young Iowans.
