FIN 48 DISCLOSURESCHEDULE D PART XIn fiscal 2009, the University adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-06, Implementation Guidance on Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes and Disclosure Amendments for Nonpublic Entities (ASU 2009-06) in conjunction with its adoption of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (now included in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Subtopic 740-10). ASC Subtopic 740-10 addresses the accounting for uncertainties in income taxes recognized in an organization's financial statements and prescribes a threshold of more-likely than-not for recognition and derecognition of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC Subtopic 740-10 also provides related guidance on measurement, classification, interest and penalties, and disclosures. There was no significant impact to the University's financial statements as a result of the adoption of ASU 2009-06 or ASC Subtopic 740-10. The University believes it has taken no significant uncertain tax positions.

Conflict of Interest PolicyFORM 990 PART VI SECTION B LINE 12cThe University has conflict of interest policies for the Board of Trustees, Officers, Key Employees, full-time staff, and part-time staff involved in purchasing. The Board of Trustees complete the conflict of interest disclosure form on an annual basis, and the disclosure forms are received and reviewed by the Trusteeship Committee. The results of the review are then reported to the Board's Executive Committee, which in turns reports the results to the full Board of Trustees. The process, review and reporting for the Officers and Key Employees is the same as the Board of Trustees. All full-time staff and part-time staff involved in purchasing complete a disclosure form annually, and these are collected and reviewed by the Associate Vice President-Administration. He then reports the findings to the Senior Vice President-Administration & Finance and the President of the University. A report is then made by the Senior Vice President-Administration & Finance to the Finance and Administration Committee of the Board, which then reports the findings to the full Board of Trustees.
Compensation ProcessFORM 990 PART VI SECTION B LINE 15bIt is the policy of the Widener University and its Board of Trustees (Board) to compensate its executives in accordance with the market and in relation to experience, service and accomplishment both prior to, and during, their service to the university. The Board's use of CUPA and similar indices is for guidance purposes, taking into consideration that the positions reported therein are not, in many instances, equivalent to the executive positions at the University. Thus, when an individual executive acquires additional responsibilities above and beyond those traditionally associated with the general category set forth in the comparative indices, the Board may consider and award appropriate compensation. Exceptions to this policy can occur where special expertise, accomplishment or experiences are required in a particular position or an urgent need has arisen justifying, in the Board's analysis, compensation at a level in excess of the policy range adopted by the Board. When such exceptions arise, the Board shall set forth a statement of their reasoning supporting the departure from the established Executive Compensation Policy. Finally, the Board, in every third year, will engage an outside consultant to verify that total compensation paid to the executives of the University is fair and reasonable.
Process to Review Form 990FORM 990 PART VI SECTION B LINE 11Once a draft of the IRS Form 990 is completed and reviewed by our independent tax advisors, it is reviewed by both the Audit and Finance & Administration Committees of the Board of Trustees. It is then reviewed with the full Board of Trustees at its next meeting (normally the May meeting). The Form 990 is not filed until the full Board of Trustees has reviewed it with management.
Documents made Available to the General PublicFORM 990 PART VI SECTION C LINE 19The University makes available to the public on its website the university's Articles of Incorporation, the conflict of interest policy, the executive compensation policy, the Form 990, the Form 990-T and the University's audited financial statements.
