## Abstract

The Department of Defense (DoD) adopts this final rule to implement Section 558 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1995, as it applies to grants. Section 558 states that funds available to the Department of Defense may not be provided by grant or contract to any institution of higher education that has a policy of denying, or which effectively prevents, the Secretary of Defense from obtaining for military recruiting purposes: entry to campuses; access to students on campuses; or access to directory information pertaining to students. The rule implements the law, as it applies to grants, by requiring inclusion of a clause in DoD grants with institutions of higher education. It also extends the requirement, as a matter of policy, to DoD cooperative agreements, because they are very similar to grants.
