GIFT APPRA ISAL POLICY:
Molion was mode, seconded and carried thot the University 's policy
rel ative to the establ ishment of gift va lue be 0$ fo llows:
Since the value of on object as a gift for incane or estate tax
purposes is a moiler that musl be established betweeo the tax
poyer and the tax agency, the University cannot be responsible
for establishing gift volue .
Occasionally, when gifls are mode to the University the question
is raised by the donor as to whether or not the University is wil ling
to place a value on the gift. Since the ve lue of 0 gift is generally
used by the donor for tox'purposes and since it is the responsibility
of the tax payer to edablish such vo lue, it seems appropriate that
the University adopt a pol icy in regard to this matter.
