Public Policy Issues and Concerns (Aug 2024)
Congress views tax exemption of colleges and universities as a subsidy to produce charitable goods and services for the benefit of society. Recently, some members of Congress have expressed the view that the subsidy entitles them to demand that schools adopt certain policies and procedures. Executive Branch agencies from the IRS and Treasury to Department of Education and Department of Labor are actively pursuing various regulatory agendas as well. These range from prohibiting investments in Chinese companies, attacks on endowments, setting tuition rates, requiring campus speech and antisemitism policy, regulating name image and likeness payments to student athletes, dictating what donor advised funds can do, granting authority to executive branch agencies to enact regulations furthering these and other positions. The federal government’s actions will impact your university. The question is: how will you respond?
