Hayden at MIT is open until 9p and was open to the public pre-pandemic. Haven’t been in a few years though

Yes it's legit, no don't xpost to r/Harvard.

I really thought this was common knowledge.

But if you need Harvard's tax exempt code, it's 10798176.

Current Harvard Law student here. It’s most likely a legitimate use by a student organization who will reimburse the meal. Happy to answer more questions if you want through private messages.

this is legit. make sure they used their p-card and not a personal credit card.

MIT has the same thing and all the restaurants in the Kendall area just kind of know how to deal with it. I don't know that the form is really necessary. Would be interested to hear from a server who has experience with this on what procedure they use when they get a tax-exempt card.

If the meal is "for a legitimate business purpose" and is being paid for by a Harvard employee using a Harvard corporate credit card (or by invoicing) then it is legit. Annoying but legit.

They do owe you both an ST-2 and ST-5, though.

It's not just Harvard btw. I've worked at multiple colleges where this is the official policy, but it's only enforced so much as individuals remember to do something about it, which isn't often.

Actually, I just found this which outlines clearly that yes taxes should be removed, even for meals: https://internal.procurement.harvard.edu/files/procurement/files/2018jun28_tax_exemption_write_up.pdf

I work at a university, and it’s real. In my experience though it only should be applied to catered services, not sit down meals.

There’s a sign that says that you can’t, but no one has ever stopped me. Just don’t leave a mess

They said meeting but come think of it wouldn’t it make more sense for them to pay full and write it off when the org do their taxes? But instead, having the restaurant not charge them and adding the extra leg work for the restaurant to submit paperwork when reporting their end of month sales. Like why making it harder for a restaurant when they have a million other things they need to do at the end of the day? I’m really not following the logic or am I just an idiot and confusing myself here?

What kind of tech? What is it for?

Right? I’m gonna be calling Harvard next week and get to the bottom of this. Should I cross post this in r/Harvard or save it for the call?

I'm curious what you're going to do with it, especially if it's gonna be used for props/set construction and then not properly recycled afterwards

Any chance you want a Thinkpad docking station?

Probably not. MA DOR requires an agent of an exempt organization to provide Form ST-2 AND ST-5 to waive meals tax.

Not sure if they'd let you pick things that have been dumped, but I might check out the electronics recycling center section at the Cambridge recycling center on Hampshire St.
