§ 16-59-18. Receipts from sources other than appropriations. [Effective until February 1, 2020.] (a) All receipts from all sources other than state appropriations shall not be covered into the general fund of the state, but shall be kept by the general treasurer of the state in a separate fund for the board of governors for higher education, and shall be paid out by the treasurer upon the order of the board, without the necessity of appropriation or re-appropriation by the general assembly.
(b) The board of governors of higher education shall ensure that state colleges and universities have a structure in place to prohibit these colleges and universities from accepting funds that would interfere with or restrict academic freedom at the state colleges and universities. Nothing contained in this subsection shall be construed in a way as to prohibit a donor from earmarking funds for a particular purpose or use including but not limited to research, scholarships, construction, or development.
