Such contractual agreements may include a provision that the Board of Regents pay a specific reservation fee for each student that is accepted for admittance, and sponsored by the Board of Regents, to the study of optometry. The Board of Regents may pay a minimum reservation fee each year of the contract as a guarantee sum in the event that fewer than the stipulated number of students from South Dakota are accepted into the study of optometry.</span></p><p dir="ltr" class="s2042665Normal"><span xml:space="preserve" class="s2042665000001"> </span></p><p dir="ltr" class="s2042665Normal"><span class="s2042665SCL">Source:</span><span xml:space="preserve" class="s2042665SCL-000002"> SL 1978, ch 124, § 1.</span></p></div></body></html>
