  1. In the case of any sex offender,  it  shall  be  the  duty  of  the

dar days prior to the release or discharge of any sex  offender  from  a
correctional facility, hospital or local correctional facility to notify

of  the  change  of residence shall be sent by the sex offender's parole
officer within forty-eight hours to the division on a form  provided  by

higher  education  while  on  parole, such notification of the change of
status shall be sent by the sex offender's parole officer within  forty-
eight  hours to the division on a form provided by the division.  IN ANY
