Identifier Return Reference Explanation
SchD_P05_S00_L04 Schedule D, Part V, Line 4 Most of the College's endowment is made up of the Olin Endowment, which is required to be held in perpetuity, subject to the exceptions explained below, in order to fund merit scholarships for all students. The Grant Agreement that created the Olin Endowment provides for its use in certain circumstances, such as for the payment of certain debt service should unrestricted net assets be insufficient for that purpose, and for certain capital outlays.
SchD_P10_S00_L02 Schedule D, Part X, Line 2 The College accounts for the effect of any uncertain tax positions based on a "more likely than not" threshold to the recognition of the tax positions being sustained based on the technical merits of the position under scrutiny by the applicable taxing authority. If a tax position or positions are deemed to result in uncertainties of those positions, the unrecognized tax benefit is estimated based on a "cumulative probability assessment" that aggregates the estimated tax liability for all uncertain tax positions. The College has identified its tax status as a tax exempt entity as its only significant tax position; however, the College has determined that such tax position does not result in an uncertainty requiring recognition. The College is not currently under examination by any taxing jurisdictions. The College's Federal and State tax returns are generally open for examination for three years following the date filed.

Such disclosures are reviewed by the Chairperson and Clerk of the Board. Final review of such situations is made by the full Board, the Executive Committee, or other Board committee having decision-making authority over the substantive matter in question.

F990_P06_S0B_L15 Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15 On an annual basis, most recently in October 2012, the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees reviews the President's salary. As part of their review, they consider comparable market data for the President's position, based on other engineering and liberal arts schools as reported in a salary survey published by CUPA (College and University Personnel Association). They also use data from CUPA on Boston-area private colleges and universities, and at least three other sources of data. On an annual basis, most recently in June 2012, the salaries of the key employees and Officers are reviewed and compared with market data. Human Resources obtains market data from a list of 13 comparable higher education institutions on an annual basis and compares the current salaries to the market data. We will make salary adjustments if necessary to bring employees to at least 80-85% of comparable market data. In addition, salaries of the key employees are compared to the CUPA salary survey as described above. This comparison to the CUPA data is reviewed by the Chairman of the Board to determine whether any market adjustments are necessary. Key employees and Officers are eligible to receive merit increases most years, based on performance, with the same criteria as other employees. The decisions regarding market adjustments are approved by independent persons, and all deliberations and decisions are substantiated contemporaneously.
