SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On April 8, 1997 (62 FR 16694), the 
Department of Defense published 32 CFR part 216 as an interim rule. 
This rule and the Omnibus Consolidated Appropriations Act of 1997 
require the Department of Defense semi-annually to publish a list of 
the institutions of higher education ineligible for Federal funds due 
to a policy or practice that either prohibits, or in effect prevents, 
the Secretary of Defense from obtaining, for military recruiting 
purposes, entry to campuses, access to students on campuses, access to 
directory information on students or that has an anti-ROTC policy. On 
October 6, 1997 (62 FR 52091), the Department of Defense published a 
list of the institutions of higher education ineligible for Federal 
Funding; this listing updates and supersedes that listing.

    Dated: November 10, 1997.
