college at one time or another
while only 14, including President

the college had no president or
acting president but instead the
chairman of the faculty served as
top administrative official.

Clarence E. Carlson, administra

taken primarily to maintain or
improve the skill of a taxpayer
required in the performance of
his employment duties when the
education expense was incurred;
or,
(2) If the education was under
taken primarily to meet the ex
press requirements of a taxpayer’s
employer, or the requirements of
applicable law or regulations im
posed as a condition for retaining
the taxpayer’s present employ
ment, salary or position.
Expenses for education may not
be deducted if the primary pur
pose for which the education was
undertaken was any of the follow
ing:
(1) To obtain a new position or
a substantial advancement in posi
tion.
(2) To fulfill general educational
aspirations or any other personal
purpose.
(3) To meet the minimum re
quirements for qualification or
establishment of intended trade,
business, or specialty.
Direct costs of education such
as books, tuition, laboratory fees,
etc., are deductible only when de
ductions are itemized on return

these if he takes the standard de
duction, uses the tax table, or uses
