STONY BROOK UNIVERSITY ALUMNI ARE A PROUD AND ENGAGED COMMUNITY THAT SERVES AND SUPPORTS THE UNIVERSITY, CELEBRATES THE ACHIEVEMENTS OF STUDENTS, FACULTY AND FELLOW ALUMNI, AND WORKS TIRELESSLY TO ENSURE THAT STONY BROOK UNIVERSITY STANDS WITH THE FINEST UNIVERSITIES IN THE WORLD.THE ALUMNI ASSOCIATION UNDERSTANDS THE NEED TO MEET THE PUBLIC SUPPORT TEST. TO THAT END, IT IS CONTINUALLY ATTEMPTING TO GENERATE NEW SOURCES OF FUNDRAISING, BOTH THROUGH BROAD DONOR APPEALS, TARGETED SOLICITATIONS, AND SPECIAL EVENTS. INTERNAL REVENUE CODE REGULATION 1.170A-9T LISTS SEVERAL CRITERIA WHICH INDICATE FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES SUPPORTING AN ORGANIZATION'S CONTINUED PUBLIC CHARITY STATUS DESPITE NOT MEETING THE 33 1/3 SUPPORT TEST. THOSE CRITERIA ARE AS FOLLOWS:1. ATTRACTION OF PUBLIC SUPPORT - THE ALUMNI'S RECENT PUBLIC SUPPORT IS SLOWLY RECOVERING FROM THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC WHICH PREVENTED THE ASSOCIATION FROM HOLDING ITS IN-PERSON FUNDRAISING EVENTS (A PRIMARY SOURCE OF THE ORGANIZATION'S REVENUE). THE ASSOCIATION CONTINUES TO EXPAND ITS FUNDRAISING CAPABILITIES AS THE WORLD RETURNS TO PRE-PANDEMIC NORMALCY. THESE ACTIVITIES TARGET PROSPECTIVE DONORS WHO SUPPORT THE MISSION AND PROGRAMS OF THE ASSOCIATION. 2. PERCENTAGE OF FINANCIAL SUPPORT - THE ASSOCIATION'S PUBLIC SUPPORT PERCENTAGE CONTINUES TO EXCEED 10% AND CONTINUES TO HOVER BETWEEN 25% AND 30% WITH BRIGHT PROSPECTS TO RETURN ABOVE 33 1/3%. THE ALUMNI ASSOCIATION ANTICIPATES THE PUBLIC SUPPORT PERCENTAGE TO CONTINUE TO IMPROVE AS ITS FUNDRAISING EVENTS RESUME AFTER THE PANDEMIC. THE HIGHER THE PERCENTAGE OF SUPPORT ABOVE THE 10 PERCENT REQUIREMENT OF PARAGRAPH (F)(3)(I) OF 1.170A-9T, THE LESSER WILL BE THE BURDEN OF ESTABLISHING THE PUBLICLY SUPPORTED NATURE OF THE ORGANIZATION THROUGH OTHER FACTORS DESCRIBED IN PARAGRAPH (F)(3), WHILE THE LOWER THE PERCENTAGE, THE GREATER WILL BE THE BURDEN. SINCE THE ASSOCIATION'S PUBLIC SUPPORT PERCENTAGE VERY CLOSELY APPROXIMATES THE 33 1/3% SUPPORT PERCENTAGE, IT MEETS THE FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES TEST FOR PUBLIC CHARITY STATUS. 3. SOURCES OF SUPPORT - THE ALUMNI ASSOCIATION'S DONOR BASE IS WIDE AND VARIED, DRAWING FROM STONY BROOK UNIVERSITY'S COMMITTED ALUMNI BASE. THE ASSOCIATION TARGETS THE UNIVERSITY'S CURRENT AND FORMER STUDENT BASE TO SUSTAIN ITS PROGRAMMATIC ACTIVITIES. THE ORGANIZATION ANTICIPATES EVEN GREATER SUPPORT IN THE COMING YEARS AS MORE ALUMNI ARE WILLING TO ATTEND IN-PERSON EVENTS, LIKE OUR GOLF OUTING. IN ADDITION, THE ASSOCIATION MAY, FROM TIME TO TIME, HOLD OTHER LOCAL EVENTS TO CREATE ADDITIONAL REVENUE STREAMS. 4. REPRESENTATIVE GOVERNING BODY - THE ASSOCIATION HAS A GOVERNING BODY THAT IS BROADLY REPRESENTED BY MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY. EACH OF THESE FACTORS ARE SIGNIFICANT POSITIVE EVIDENCE OF THE ASSOCIATION'S PUBLICLY SUPPORTED NATURE.

THIS GUIDANCE PROVIDES THAT THE TAX EFFECTS FROM AN UNCERTAIN TAX POSITION CAN ONLY BE RECOGNIZED IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS IF THE POSITION IS MORE LIKELY THAN NOT TO BE SUSTAINED IF THE POSITION WERE TO BE CHALLENGED BY A TAXING AUTHORITY. THE ASSESSMENT OF THE TAX POSITION IS BASED SOLELY ON THE TECHNICAL MERITS OF THE POSITION, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE LIKELIHOOD THAT THE TAX POSITION MAY BE CHALLENGED. THE ASSOCIATION IS EXEMPT FROM FEDERAL INCOME TAX UNDER INTERNAL REVENUE CODE (THE "CODE") SECTION 501(C)(3), THOUGH THEY ARE SUBJECT TO TAX ON INCOME UNRELATED TO ITS EXEMPT PURPOSE, UNLESS THAT INCOME IS OTHERWISE EXCLUDED BY THE CODE. THE ASSOCIATION HAS PROCESSES PRESENTLY IN PLACE TO ENSURE THE MAINTENANCE OF THEIR RESPECTIVE TAX-EXEMPT STATUS; TO IDENTIFY AND REPORT UNRELATED INCOME; TO DETERMINE ITS FILING AND TAX OBLIGATIONS IN JURISDICTIONS FOR WHICH IT HAS NEXUS; AND TO IDENTIFY AND EVALUATE OTHER MATTERS THAT MAY BE CONSIDERED TAX POSITIONS. THE ASSOCIATION HAS DETERMINED THAT THERE ARE NO MATERIAL UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS THAT REQUIRE RECOGNITION OR DISCLOSURE IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.
