Sec. 8. A board of control shall not borrow money on its general faith and credit, nor create any liens upon its property.

A board may borrow money under such terms and provisions as it deems best to finance such facilities, and shall obligate itself for the repayment thereof, together with interest thereon, solely out of the income and revenues from such facilities, or other such facilities heretofore or hereafter acquired, or from special fees and charges required to be paid by the students deemed by it to be benefited thereby, or any combination thereof.
