Values:
61 = TRUE ENDOWMENT: Donors or other outside agencies have stipulated as a condition of the gift instrument that the principal is to be maintained inviolate and in perpetuity. The income may either be expended or added to principal.
62 = FUNDS FUNCTIONING as ENDOWMENT: The Board of Trustees of the University, rather than a donor or other outside agency, has determined that the principal be retained and invested usually for a period of 10 years or more. Since these funds are internally designated rather than externally designated, the Board of Trustees has the right to decide at any time to expend the principal.
63 = TERM ENDOWMENT: Term endowment funds are similar to true endowment funds except that, upon the passage of a stated period of time or the happening of a particular event, all or a part of the principal may be expended.
