“The university qualifies as a tax-exempt organization as described in internal revenue code section 501(c)(3) and has been classified by the internal revenue service as other than a private university. However, income from certain activities not directly related to the university's tax-exempt purpose is subject to taxation as unrelated business income. In the opinion of management, the university had no significant unrelated business taxable income during 2017. Accordingly, no provision or benefit for federal and state income taxes has been recorded in the accompanying financial statements. The university believes that it has appropriate support for any tax positions taken, and as such does not have any uncertain tax positions that are material to the financial statements.”
