The employment and separation of individual personnel in a community college, and the establishing or abolishing of individual courses of instruction, shall not be subject to the specific and individual approval or disapproval of the Ohio board of regents, but shall occur in the discretion of the local management of such college within the limitations of law, the official plan, and the charter of such college.
