The SERP constitutes an unfunded promise to pay, in the future, an annual benefit equal to a percentage of final average salary. Participants become 100% vested upon reaching retirement at the age of 65, assuming continuous service to the University.

Form 990, Part III, Line 1 ORGANIZATION'S MISSION	(CONTINUED FROM PART III) THE UNIVERSITY'S PRIMARY PURPOSES ARE EDUCATION; THE PRESERVATION, DISCOVERY, DISSEMINATION AND CREATIVE APPLICATION OF KNOWLEDGE; AND THE PREPARATION OF ITS GRADUATES WITH THE ACADEMIC FOUNDATION FOR LIFELONG LEARNING. SERVICE, SCHOLARLY ACTIVITY INCLUDING RESEARCH, AND ONGOING PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT ALLOW THE FACULTY, IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE ENTIRE UNIVERSITY COMMUNITY, TO FULFILL ITS PURPOSES: FACILITATING LEARNING AND FOSTERING THE INTELLECTUAL LIFE OF THE UNIVERSITY. LYNN STRESSES INDIVIDUALIZED LEARNING, INNOVATIVE APPROACHES AND AN INTERNATIONAL FOCUS AMONG ITS STUDENTS AND FACULTY. THE UNIVERSITY OFFERS BACCALAUREATE, MASTER'S, AND ONE DOCTORAL DEGREE, AS WELL AS CERTIFICATES. BREADTH, DEPTH, AND APPLICATION OF LEARNING ARE THE BASES FOR COMPETENCIES IN ALL PROGRAMS. GRADUATE CURRICULA PROMOTE ADVANCED OR EXPERT KNOWLEDGE AND SCHOLARSHIP. PROGRAMS ARE DELIVERED THROUGH A VARIETY OF VENUES, INCLUDING A TRADITIONAL RESIDENTIAL CAMPUS SETTING AND ONLINE.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4a PROGRAM ACCOMPLISHMENTS	(CONTINUED FROM PART III) THE UNIVERSITY IS COMMITTED TO STUDENT-CENTERED LEARNING, WHERE FACULTY AND STAFF PROVIDE PERSONALIZED ATTENTION TO STUDENTS WHO HAVE VARYING LEVELS OF ACADEMIC PROFICIENCY AND ARE MOTIVATED TO EXCEL. A FULL RANGE OF ACADEMIC AND SUPPORT PROGRAMS ARE COORDINATED TO SERVE THE INCREASINGLY DIVERSE NEEDS OF UNDERGRADUATE AND GRADUATE STUDENTS. ADDITIONAL AND SPECIALIZED ACADEMIC SUPPORT SERVICES ARE OFFERED TO PROVIDE ACADEMIC ASSISTANCE TO HELP STUDENTS REMAIN IN COLLEGE AND GRADUATE. THESE SERVICES ARE OFFERED TO STUDENTS IN A VARIETY OF FORMS WITH A VARYING FEE SCHEDULE. AN ACADEMIC RESOURCE NAMED THE INSTITUTE FOR ACHIEVEMENT AND LEARNING IS AVAILABLE TO ALL STUDENTS, INCLUDING THOSE WITH DIAGNOSED LEARNING DIFFERENCES. MATH, COMPUTER AND OTHER SUBJECT-AREA TUTORS ASSIST STUDENTS. THE UNIVERSITY, SMALL BY DESIGN, PROVIDES AN ENVIRONMENT WITHIN AND OUTSIDE THE CLASSROOM IN WHICH A COMMUNITY OF LEARNERS CAN PURSUE ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE AND DEVELOP THEIR SKILLS AS RESPONSIBLE GLOBAL CITIZENS. FACULTY, STAFF AND STUDENTS CONTRIBUTE TO AN ATMOSPHERE THAT NURTURES CREATIVITY, FOSTERS ACHIEVEMENT, VALUES DIVERSITY AND ENCOURAGES VOLUNTARISM. EACH JAN. 12, ALL FACULTY, STAFF AND STUDENTS PERFORM COMMUNITY SERVICE DURING "KNIGHTS UNITE DAY OF CARING," A PROGRAM WHICH HONORS THE FOUR STUDENTS AND TWO PROFESSORS WHO DIED IN THE HAITI EARTHQUAKE IN 2010 WHILE PERFORMING COMMUNITY SERVICE. LYNN'S ACADEMIC CURRICULA AND PROGRAMS ARE STRUCTURED TO PROVIDE A BALANCE BETWEEN THE THEORETICAL AND THE PRACTICAL, ALONG WITH OPPORTUNITIES TO BECOME INVOLVED IN COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS AND INDUSTRIES. EDUCATION AND SERVICE ARE FULLY INTEGRATED TO MEET THE CHANGING NEEDS OF THE LOCAL AND GLOBAL COMMUNITY. THIS INTEGRATIVE DESIGN PREPARES OUR GRADUATES TO MEET THE DYNAMIC NEEDS OF THE EMERGING GLOBAL SOCIETY. A RIGOROUS CORE CURRICULUM-THE DIALOGUES-WAS LAUNCHED IN FALL 2008. CORE COURSES ARE REQUIRED THROUGH ALL FOUR YEARS IN THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE PROGRAM. IN EACH CORE CLASS, FACULTY MEMBERS MEASURE STUDENT OUTCOMES IN COMPETENCY AREAS INCLUDING WRITING, QUANTITATIVE REASONING, AND SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNOLOGICAL LITERACY. PRESENTED IN SEMINAR RATHER THAN LECTURE FORMAT, THE CORE COURSES ARE ORGANIZED AROUND LIFE'S BIG QUESTIONS: DIALOGUES OF SELF AND SOCIETY, DIALOGUES OF BELIEF AND REASON, DIALOGUES OF JUSTICE AND CIVIC LIFE. EACH JANUARY, ALL STUDENTS ARE REQUIRED TO ATTEND A J-TERM COURSE. THOSE ARE FOCUSED ON INNOVATION AND OFFER INTENSE THREE-WEEK EXPERIENCES THAT INCLUDE TRAVEL, CIVIC ACTIVISM, CAREER PREP, LANGUAGE AND CULTURE, AND OTHER CREATIVE APPROACHES TO LEARNING. ALL FRESHMEN ARE REQUIRED TO PARTICIPATE IN THE CITIZENSHIP PROJECT DURING THE J-TERM. IN FALL 2013, LYNN LAUNCHED ONE OF THE MOST EXTENSIVE TABLET-BASED LEARNING EFFORTS IN THE COUNTRY. THE AWARD-WINNING INITIATIVE USED APPLE TECHNOLOGY TO DELIVER THE DIALOGUES OF LEARNING CORE CURRICULUM TO ALL INCOMING FRESHMEN WHILE ALSO SAVING THEM UP TO 50 PERCENT ON THE TYPICAL COST OF THEIR CORE CURRICULUM TEXTBOOKS. EARLY RESULTS AND FEEDBACK FROM THE IPAD INITIATIVE HAVE BEEN SO POSITIVE THAT THE PROGRAM WILL ENTER PHASE II AND ACCELERATE THE INITIATIVE. IN FALL 2014, LYNN DISTRIBUTED IPADS TO ALL DAYTIME UPPER CLASSMEN AND MBA STUDENTS. THE IPAD PROGRAM WENT "PRO" IN SPRING 2016. LYNN BECAME THE FIRST SCHOOL IN THE NATION TO INTEGRATE THE IPAD PRO AND CORRESPONDING APPLE PENCIL AND SMART KEYBOARD INTO ITS CLASSROOMS, DISTRIBUTING NEARLY 1,800 OF EACH ACROSS CAMPUS.
