“electing members of governing body. the president of the university of south carolina appoints an academic dean to serve on the board. additionally, the usc board of trustees also elects one member to serve on the board.”
“the organization does not have a committee that acts on behalf of the governing body.”
“990 is created by CFO and reviewed by the Executive Director/Chair. This is first year we intend on sharing copy of 990 in advance with Board members.”
“Annually conflict of interest statements are collected by the Board members. The amount of transactions is small, and the non-for-profit foundations/government agencies with which transactions occur are small so that review can be conducted monthly.”
“Process for determining compensation for top management official: the executive director is an employee of usc. The board chair is not compensated or considered a foundation employee. The foundation pays the chair under a contractual agreement. Compensation is very low. Chair kester freeman receives $24k per year. Executive director has 5% of his compensation paid by the foundation. All employees are leased in portion by the university to the foundation, and salaries must be acceptable to state of south carolina.”
“Process for determining compensation for other officers/employees: the foundation does not have employees of its own; all employees are university of south carolina employees.”
“The financial statements are posted on the foundations's website at https://sc.edu/about/offices_and_divisions/sponsored_awards_management/institutional_info/usc_business_information.php. All other documents are made available upon request.”
“The process has not changed from the prior year.”

| IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt | 1 | substantially all the activity in the scrf pertained to supporting the university of south carolina research mission. all of scrf program services (sponsored awards to scrf and controlled by usc, $5.6 million) and 97% of its management and general expenses ($172K) were specific to usc sponsored programs and to support research personnel and activities at usc. This constitutes 99% of the scrf expenditures and revenue. |
| IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt | 2 | one of the primary missions of any large state research university is to engage in research. usc engages in research directly with external sponsors and with the support of scrf. in some cases, sponsors prefer the organizational formation of scrf and scrf is able to accommodate them to the benefit of the external sponsor and usc. |
