[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Again - the question of confusion - does anyone know of any government that taxes educational institutions in the US? I thought this was a blanket practice nationwide? At the federal, state and local levels? Maybe I am wrong?[/quote] Some cities negotiate payments-in-lieu-of-taxes (PILOTS) from universities, especially when they are large landowners and much of their property isn't subject to property taxes. Here's an example from Cambridge (where I first noticed the practice -- don't know how widespread it is): http://www2.cambridgema.gov/CDD/data/educ/towngown_2008.html But I don't think they collect from private primary/secondary day schools.
