SchD_P05_S00_L04Schedule D, Part V, Line 4Southwestern Law School's endowment fund primarily provides financial assistance in the form of scholarships to Southwestern law students. The endowment fund also provides Professorships for Southwestern faculty and supplemental operating income.
SchD_P10_S00_L02Schedule D, Part X, Line 2As of July 1, 2010, the Law School adopted accounting guidance related to uncertain tax positions. In accordance with this guidance, management is required to determine whether a tax position of the Law School is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefit to be recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Derecognition of a tax benefit previously recognized could result in the Law School recording a tax liability that would reduce net assets. The Law School has reviewed all significant tax positions for material tax jurisdiction including the US federal and California state tax jurisdictions for which the statute of limitations remained open which is generally three years for federal and state taxes and four years for California. The open tax year are 2008 through 2011 for federal and 2007 through 2011 for California tax years and determined there were no material unrecognized tax benefits. However, the statute can be extended if there was a failure to file a necessary tax return. In addition, there have been no material changes in unrecognized benefits since July 1, 2011, nor are any anticipated in the 12 months following June 30, 2012. However, management's conclusions regarding this policy may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, on-going analyses of and changes to tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof. There have been no related tax penalties or interest, which would be classified as operating or interest expenses in the statement of operations.

SchJ_P01_S00_L01aSchedule J, Part I, Line 1aSocial club dues of $3,951 were paid by the organization to allow one business officer (Dean/CEO) of the organization to network so as to publicly advance the Law School. This amount was not treated as reportable compensation. The Dean/CEO also receives an annual automobile allowance of $6,000 and a $10,000 allowance for community affairs which advance the Law School's interest in the community. These amounts were treated as reportable compensation and were part of the Dean/CEO's employment contract which was approved by the Law School's Board of Trustees.
SchJ_P01_S00_L01bSchedule J, Part I, Line 1bSocial club dues (in this case $3,951) are paid by the organization as a business expense as they provide professional networking opportunities which increases the public's awareness of the institution.
SchJ_P01_S00_L03Schedule J, Part I, Line 3The compensation committee meets to determine the compensation package for Southwestern's Dean/CEO. Form 990s of other organizations as well as compensation surveys are used to determine the Dean/CEO's salary. The committee considers Southwestern's internal budgeted salary increase in conjunction with the other salary information listed above to target a reasonable compensation package. The Board of Trustees approves the compensation package. This process is undertaken on an annual basis for our Dean/CEO, with the most recent year being 2012.
SchJ_P01_S00_L07Schedule J, Part I, Line 7The Dean/CEO is eligible for an annual discretionary bonus. The Board confers and determines, in its sole discretion, whether a bonus for prior year service will be awarded. The Board of Trustees considers the Dean/CEO's record of service and contributions, if any, to the improvement of the Law School's graduate bar passage rates, fundraising and endowment enhancement, enhancement of the visibility, reputation and stature of the law school in the community, success in faculty hiring, improvements in the Law School's ranking by nationally-recognized organizations and progress in executing the Law School's Strategic Plan.
