Connecticut General Statutes 10a-109h – Security for indebtedness; indenture
(a) Any pledge made by the university pursuant to section 10a-109g is and shall be deemed a statutory lien. Such lien shall be valid and binding from the time when the pledge is made. The lien of any pledge shall be valid and binding as against all parties having claims of any kind in tort, contract or otherwise against the university, irrespective of whether the parties have notice of the claims. Notwithstanding any provision of the Uniform Commercial Code to the contrary, neither sections 10a-109a to 10a-109y, inclusive, the indenture or resolution, nor any other instrument by which a pledge is created need be recorded. Any revenues or other receipts, funds, moneys, personal property of fixtures so pledged and thereafter received by the university shall be subject immediately to the lien of the pledge without any physical delivery thereof or further act and such lien shall have priority over all other liens, including without limitation the liens of persons who, in the ordinary course of business, furnish services or materials in respect of such assets.
