        <ExplanationTxt>The College is exempt from federal income tax under the provisions of Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code ("IRC"). Management believes that the College continues to satisfy the requirements of a tax-exempt organization and is not subject to tax. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been reflected in the accompanying financial statements. Management has evaluated the effect of FASB guidance on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. The guidance clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity's financial statements by prescribing a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The College's policy is to record a liability for any tax position taken that is beneficial to the College, including any related interest and penalties, when it is more likely than not the position taken by management with respect to a transaction or class of transactions will be overturned by a taxing authority upon examination. Management believes there are no such positions as of May 31, 2016 and 2015 and, accordingly, no liability has been accrued.</ExplanationTxt>

        <ExplanationTxt>The process adopted by the President's Compensation Committee of the Board of Trustees for its annual determination of the compensation of the President is as follows: By the end of the Winter Board of Trustees' meeting, the Board will advise the President whether his or her contract will be renewed. By April 1st, the President will submit a self-assessment to the Compensation Committee responding to each objective. By May 1st, the Compensation Committee will review the report, communicate its feedback to the President, and issue a report and presidential salary and benefits recommendation to the Executive Committee. The Compensation Committee will use at least two sources of comparable data to determine the appropriate salary and benefits. Those sources are generally the annual compensation reports of the AGB (Association of Governing Board) and the NCICU (North Carolina Independent Colleges and Universities). However, similar sources may be used as alternatives from time to time. Documentation of the comparable data used will be part of the permanent file substantiating compensation. The Executive Committee will make a final decision about the President's salary before the Spring Board of Trustees meeting for final approval by the Board during the Spring meeting. With regards to senior staff, market data from the North Carolina Independent Colleges and Universities on administrative salaries will be reviewed by the president. the president will advise the board who will approve compensation for the senior staff. additionally, the college recently participated in a wage study through agb and that data is available to confirm wages of the president and other key employees.</ExplanationTxt>
