Part X, Line 2: The Foundation accounts for the effect of any uncertain tax positions based on a "more likely than not" threshold to the recognition of the tax positions being sustained based on the technical merits of the position under scrutiny by the applicable taxing authority. If a tax position or positions are deemed to result in uncertainties of those positions, the unrecognized tax benefit is estimated based on a "cumulative probability assessment" that aggregates the estimated tax liability for all uncertain tax positions. The Foundation has identified its tax status as a tax exempt entity as its only significant tax position; however, the Foundation has determined that such tax position does not result in an uncertainty requiring recognition. The Foundation is not currently under examination by any taxing jurisdiction. Its federal income tax returns are generally open for examination for three years following the date of the filing of the related return.

Pluralism: HARVARD HILLEL BELIEVES THAT CONTINUITY AND CREATIVITY IN JEWISH LIFE DEVELOPs FROM INTERACTION AMONG DIVERSE JEWS as well as THEIR TRADITIONS AND BELIEFS.
