- "Controlled substance" means any drug, substance or immediate precursor listed in 21 U.S.C. Section 812.
- Possession, sale, dispensation, use or consumption of alcoholic beverages upon land or in buildings owned by the Board or its institutions is prohibited, except as provided by this subsection.
- This policy does not apply to homes furnished to institution officials, family housing, married student housing, faculty housing or off-campus guest housing.
- Alcoholic beverages may be permitted, subject to applicable state and local laws and ordinances, at events in facilities or upon land owned by the institution pursuant to a permit signed by the institution's chief executive or designee. The permit must describe the nature of the event and the date(s), time(s) and place where consumption of alcoholic beverages is permitted. The permit may be for a single event or for events occurring periodically at the designated place during a period of not more than one year.
- Sale and service of alcoholic beverages for consumption on premises may be permitted in the Ralph Engelstad Arena/Betty Engelstad Sioux Center at UND and in restaurants, meeting rooms and guest rooms in commercial hotels or motels or in other restaurants located on leased land developed under Policy 910.1. Restaurants must be full service establishments where service of meals is the primary focus. Night clubs and bars where full meal service is not the primary focus are not permitted. This authority is subject to relevant state and local laws and such additional restrictions as may be imposed by the Board in authorizing the development or in lease agreements entered into by the institutions.
- Sale and service of alcoholic beverages for consumption on premises are permitted for special events within the Badlands Activities Center at Dickinson State University in designated hospitality or meeting rooms and adjoining outdoor patio areas, subject to compliance with all state and local alcoholic beverages laws, ordinances and regulations. Special events at which sale and service of alcoholic beverages are permitted may include community or other events open to the public or private events, but alcoholic beverages are prohibited at K-12 school events. Sale and service of alcoholic beverages are generally prohibited at Dickinson State University events, subject only to exceptions granted by special permit signed by the DSU president or president's designee under subparagraph b of this section.
- Alcoholic beverages may not be purchased with public funds.
