This webinar is a CASE member exclusive event.

The U.S. Department of the Treasury and Internal Revenue Service have proposed regulations that could expand the circumstances under which private educational institutions may face revocation of their tax-exempt status. The regulations addresses race-based admissions, scholarships, policies, and programs and could have significant implications for independent schools, their students, and the philanthropic support that helps advance their missions.

Join CASE on October 19 at 1:00 p.m. ET for a timely discussion of the proposed regulations, their potential impact on independent schools, and what school leaders and advancement professionals should be considering now.

As CASE has noted in its public statement, we are concerned that these regulations could have unintended consequences for charitable giving and the ability of educational institutions to fulfill their educational missions.

With the November 3 public comment deadline approaching, this webinar will also explain how CASE plans to weigh in as well as how independent schools can engage in the federal rulemaking process and make their voices heard.
