Contingent Liabilities The University is subject to various claims, disputes and legal proceedings. Provision is made for such matters when, in the opinion of management and its professional advisors, it is probable that a payment will be made by the University, and the amount can be reasonably estimated. In respect of the claims asserted against the University, which have not been provided for, management believes such claims are either without merit or can be successfully defended or will result in exposure to the University which is immaterial to both financial position and results of operations.
