        <ReturnReference>FORM 990, SCHEDULE D, PART III, LINE 4</ReturnReference>
        <Explanation>Among the rich resources provided for students is a fine, small art collection. The collection includes eighteenth-through early twenty-first century American and European paintings, prints, and sculpture; vintage photographs; and contemporary American sculpture and paintings. Recent acquisitions build on the strength of the existing collections. The Mission Statement for the art collections is to document, preserve for future generations, exhibit, and make accessible the College's art collection to the students, public, and scholars through exhibitions, publications, reproductions, and by granting access for research purposes. The administration of the art collection complies with museum-field wide standards of care (see American Alliance of Museums, AAM). Students have curated exhibitions from the collections; when appropriate, artwork is loaned to other institutions for exhibitions of scholarly importance; images of artwork are readily available for reproductions in commercial (ex: text books) and academic-scholarly publications (generally at no charge or a nominal fee). The Lafayette College's special collections and college archives are home to approximately 20,000 rare books and more than 2,000 cubic feet of manuscripts and archives. The holdings include manuscripts, rare books, prints and memorabilia relating to the Marquis de Lafayette; rare book collections on Stephen Crane, angling, miniature books, and artists' books; papers of former Treasury Secretary William E. Simon, New Jersey Governor Robert B. Meyner and Congresswoman Helen Meyner; the early records of the Easton-based Dixie Cup Company and the papers of noted illustrator and artist Howard Chandler Christy. The college archives serves as the repository for the records of Lafayette College, dating back to the founding of the College in 1824-1826. It is charged with records management responsibilities for current college records. The archives also include more than 50,000 photographs, audio-visual recordings, and objects that document the college's history. LAFAYETTE COLLEGE MINERAL COLLECTION The Department of Geology and Environmental Geoscience houses the College's mineral, gem, and fossil collection that consists of more than 10,000 specimens. The collection was started over a century ago and has grown through the gift of many private collections. The collection is housed in Van Wickle Hall and a large number of specimens are on display in the Geology Museum in the center of Van Wickle Hall. The collection is managed by a professional curator who works part time to curate the collection and cycle minerals from storage through the display cases. The growth and maintenance of the collection is partially supported by an endowed fund gifted by John Pohl along with the donation of his mineral collection in 1952. The collection has grown significantly during the past 10 years donations totaling more than 1,000 specimens from several donors. The centerpiece of the collection is a two-ton piece of Orbicular Granodiorite quarried in Western Australia. The granitoid formed in a magma chamber 2.7 billion years ago and the orbicular texture earned it the informal name of, the leopard rock. The collection is enjoyed by the Lafayette community, elementary and secondary students, youth groups, and the community at large.</Explanation>

        <Explanation>The amounts reported on Part I are identified on a reasonable efforts basis where such activities were not tracked separately under the College's accounting procedures. These reasonable efforts include reviews of financial records and interviews with College personnel. The majority of the Colleges expenditures outside of the United States are associated with the College's investment activities. In addition, the College expends funds outside of the United States on various study abroad programs. Students enrolled in study abroad programs pay their tuition and fees directly to Lafayette College and the College remits payments to the overseas program on behalf of the students. Any financial aid awarded to a student that may support the costs associated with their study abroad activities are credits to the student's account at the College.</Explanation>

        <Explanation>Lafayette College maintains a policy defining its procedures for monitoring the use of sponsored funds by sub-recipients who are performing a portion of a sponsored project externally awarded to Lafayette. This policy provides guidance to ensure that sub-recipients conduct their portion of sponsored projects in compliance with the laws, regulations, terms and conditions of awards and sub awards, and that reimbursement costs incurred by sub-recipients are allowed. The College considers the awarding of financial aid (Primarily grants, scholarships, loans, and work-study) to its students, including non-resident alien students to be a U.S. based activity as students of the College are deemed to be living in the United States throughout their completion of the College's academic curriculum and supporting programs. The College awards scholarships and fellowships on the basis of merit and/or financial need. The section criteria is based on the calculated expected family contribution, which is derived by using complex formulas involving families' income, assets, and household sizes, including, among other factors, dependents in college. The College's financial aid office administers and monitors these awards to help ensure that these funds are awarded to eligible recipients in accordance with applicable Federal, State, and other requirements, as well as relevant internal College policies and operational guidelines. Academic prizes, awards, fellowship, and internships are awarded based on a review by the applicable academic department. All awarded scholarships and fellowships are credited to the student's account at the College and are applied to billed charges.</Explanation>

        <Explanation>The College contracts with a for-profit dining service provider for the management of the dining operations on campus. The current contract is structured such that the preponderance of fees is based on a per capita charge, and the contract has a one-year term. A small portion of the proceeds of the Series 2008 bonds were used to renovate one of the two dining venues on campus, but given its nature and term, the College, with the advice of counsel, believes the contract with the for-profit dining service provider is a qualified management contract and not subject to private use.</Explanation>

        <Identifier>Schedule K, Part IV, Line 3, Use of Interest Rate Hedging Contracts</Identifier>
        <ReturnReference>0</ReturnReference>
        <Explanation>The College has three (3) interest rate hedging contracts in place that were entered into to mitigate the College's interest rate risk inherent with variable rate structured debt. Each of the hedging contracts requires the College to pay a fixed rate in return for a variable rate that is expected to approximate the interest rate payable on the College's debt in typical markets. None of the three (3) interest rate hedging contracts are structured as "qualified" hedges on the records of the issuing authority for any of the Colleges debt issuances, which is the Northampton County General Purpose Authority. As such, none of the interest rate hedges are integrated for tax purposes with a particular debt issuance of the College. The counterparty for each of the three (3) interest rate hedging contracts is UBS and they have scheduled terms of 2023, 2030, and 2034.</Explanation>

        <Explanation>Process for the review of Form 990 The Form 990 return is prepared by the Colleges administration and forwarded to the Colleges outside tax advisor for review and input into electronic media. The College will discuss the return with its outside tax advisor and make revisions prior to the printing of a first draft return for review and comment by the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee reviews this draft return, recommends changes and such changes are then incorporated into a revised draft return. This revised draft return is reviewed again by the Audit Committee to ensure the Committees requested changes were appropriately made. The administration will then distribute the revised draft return to the full Board of Trustees with a request for review and comment. If any questions or comments are received from a Board Member and the return is revised as a result, the Administration will advise the full Board of the change before filing of the final return.</Explanation>
