Opinion No. 76-79 (1979)

Dear Representative Baker:

This opinion is in response to your request for an opinion which reads as follows:

"1. Is there statutory authority for public junior colleges in the state of Missouri to belong to the Missouri Association of Community Junior Colleges? Can junior college funds be used to support this organization through membership dues and other fees?

"2. Is there statutory authority for school districts in the state of Missouri to belong to the Missouri Athletic Association? Can district funds be used to support this association through membership dues and other fees?"

Although no…
