Neither the grounds so leased nor any of the improvements constructed on the grounds shall be used in any manner that discriminates against anyone because of race, creed, color, religion, national origin, ancestry, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression. The board of trustees may borrow money in conjunction with the construction and leases and assist in effecting any of those purposes.

Research and development facilities and land acquired may also be used in part by such state or federal governmental agencies, persons, or entities, public or private, as may contract or enter into leases with the Colorado school of mines. Net income derived or anticipated to be derived from such facilities and land may be pledged, alone or with other sources, as authorized by section 23-5-103, to the payment of any securities or refunding securities issued pursuant to sections 23-5-102 and 23-5-103.

Nothing in subsections (2), (3), and (4) of this section shall constitute any authority to enter into any contract which in any way creates any debt or obligation upon the state on account of the construction of such buildings, improvements, or facilities.
