Facts for Advisers

Bequest Language

            I give, devise and bequeath to National-Louis University, an Illinois corporation, located in Chicago, Illinois, the sum of $________________ (or property or percentage of estate herein described) to be used by its Board of Trustees, as it may deem advisable, for the benefit of said institution.

OUTRIGHT BEQUEST
            I, ____________________________________, give, devise, and bequeath the sum of $_____________________ (or property or percentage of estate herein described) to National-Louis University, an Illinois corporation, located in Chicago, Illinois.  I request, but without creating a legal obligation, that said sum be used for ______________________________________________(name purpose).

If the Trustees of National-Louis University determine that all or part of the income can no longer be utilized to the best advantage for the institutional purpose herein stated, then all or any part of the income may be used in whatever manner may, in the sole discretion of said Trustees, most closely carry out my intentions.  The Fund, for purposes of investment, may be combined with other Funds of National-Louis University.
