The general assembly may make appropriations to the commissioner of administration for grants to Crowder College in the planning and operation of the Missouri alternative and renewable energy center, if it determines that Crowder College has established and is actively building an endowment fund for the partial funding of the center. In connection with the utilization of such grants, Crowder College may contract with any person, firm or corporation, whether organized for profit or otherwise, and may receive and expend funds received from the federal government or any agency thereof, or from any person, firm or corporation. Appropriations made pursuant to the provisions of this section shall not be considered as a part of the regular appropriations for Crowder College nor shall such appropriations result in any reduction of appropriations for Crowder College. Appropriations from the state shall be used for a program of instruction in alternative energy, public educational services including instruction in Missouri elementary and secondary schools, service to Missouri industries through cooperative projects and in-service training, and applied research in alternative energy applications.
