Edited by Donald D. Gehring
The new, expanded, and revised edition of this popular title is a third larger than the original, with every chapter completely updated with new rulings and expanded to cover new topics. A new chapter discussing unrelated business income tax (UBIT), unfair competition, property tax, and other topics of interest to tax-exempt organizations has been added. Written by housing officers for housing officers, this book presents, in a layperson's terms, a variety of legal issues affecting the daily operation of college and university housing. Cases used to illustrate the issues are, in most instances, housing-related controversies. Useful for staff development and resident assistant training. Appendices provide references to federal laws and regulations affecting campus housing and a helpful checklist for self-evaluation of housing operations.
