YOUNG REPUBLICANS OFFSHOOT HOLDS FIRST EVENT

By Josh Morrison

The most recent registered organization on campus, the Students for Corporate Independence, held its first event last night in Connecticut Hall. The evening opened with remarks from the club’s president Robertson Wycoff ‘93, regarding the club’s interest and mission statement. Wycoff then encouraged members and onlookers to mingle and enjoy refreshments.

Though its name is broad, the Students for Corporate Independence was founded in response to a sole point of contention among the Young Republicans—the issue of apartheid. Members of the young republicans have been split into two camps about the crisis in South Africa, mostly over whether or not the United States should intervene. Campuses across the country have weighed in on the issue, with protests advocating for disinvestment from South African businesses cropping up at Harvard University and Smith College, among others. The Students for Corporate Independence split off from the Young Republicans led by Wycoff refused to support calls for disinvestment at Yale.

Wycoff’s involvement comes as a surprise to some, especially since he is a student-athlete for the lacrosse team. Despite his time commitment to his sport, he has devoted much of his energy to getting the Students for Corporate Independence off the ground, citing his passion for the right to make choices for ourselves.

“Is it segregation? Yes. But is divestment the best way to solve this issue—crippling the economy and threatening the poorest in South Africa’s livelihoods? Not to mention the government’s attempted overreaches to make these choices for corporations,” Wycoff said during the meeting. “The United States had its own stain with segregation—luckily we are long past that being an issue—but any intervention from foreign governments to force integration would have been tantamount to an overthrow.”

Following Wycoff’s speech, new club members dined on snacks from South Africa-based businesses.

“Now this tastes like freedom,” Wycoff quipped. “Democrats are missing out.”

Apartheid Protest Turns Chaotic After Scuffle

By Will O’Donnell

Four students were taken into custody by campus police last night after a peaceful protest against apartheid was met with resistance from counter protesters. Star lacrosse player Robertson Wycoff, president of Students for Corporate Independence and Class of ‘93, organized the counter protest after he heard students would be gathering in front of Commons to call on the Yale board of trustees to divest its endowment from South African businesses and investments.

According to onlookers, protesters held up signs and sang songs in between speeches from student leaders and faculty members. Once Wycoff’s group arrived, however, things quickly escalated, with Wycoff addressing the protesters with a megaphone.

“Wasting your time on a country halfway around the world! Get a job!” he said as he approached the seated protesters. “Or better yet, learn to mind your business.”

“Students were feeling uncomfortable about the counter protesters getting in their faces, and we don’t want anyone feeling unsafe,” Campus Police Chief Matthew Donn said. "Then came the yelling and shoving, so we got involved to settle things down.”

A student who was one of the initial protesters was taken to the infirmary with swelling on the ankle. She was discharged later in the evening.

Wycoff Enters YCC Race

By Kevin Adams

Robertson Wycoff (Class of 1993), the firebrand at the helm of the polarizing organization Students for Corporate Independence, announced his intent to run for president of the Yale College Council yesterday morning. Flyers appeared on lampposts and bulletin boards early yesterday touting Wycoff’s run and a kickoff speech in the afternoon. Hundreds of students attended the event, which included an appearance by the Yale lacrosse team and members of the Pom Squad.

“I am proud to announce my run for YCC president, and especially honored to do so with the support of my brothers on the lacrosse team,” Wycoff said. “If I am elected, I will serve every student to the best of my ability, whether they’re dealing with an academic issue or want cooler people to come perform on campus.”

While Wycoff is best known for his play on the field, he has garnered disdain from progressive members of the student body for his leadership in the Students for Corporate Independence, a club against economic sanctions for apartheid South Africa. Earlier this year, he was taken into campus police custody for a fight that broke out during an anti-apartheid protest. Wycoff was later cleared of any wrongdoing.

“To say we disagree only on economic policy is a disservice to the cause,” Maya Albertson, a well-known activist on campus and ‘94, said. “He has more in common with segregationists. Wouldn’t be surprised if he had his own Klan robes.”

Wycoff faces opposition from Charles Rhoades, Jr., a third-year in Saybrook College, and Ramona Blackburn, a member of Trumbull College and ‘93. A debate featuring all the candidates will be held in three weeks.

How to Avoid Probate and Reduce the Costs of Estate Administration

Today many people are using revocable living trusts as the foundation for their estate plans. When properly prepared, a living trust will avoid the public, costly, and time-consuming court process of conservatorship (due to incapacity) or probate (after death). Still, many people make a big mistake that sends their assets and loved ones right into the court system: they fail to fund their trust.

What Does it Mean to “Fund a Trust?”

Funding can be accomplished several different ways:

Changing the title of the asset from your individual name (or joint names) to the name of your trust – for example, from John Smith individually, to John Smith, as Trustee of the John Smith Living Trust…

Assigning your interest in an asset without a title (such as artwork, jewelry, collectibles or antiques) to your trust.

Changing the primary or contingent beneficiary of the asset (i.e. your IRA, 401(k), 403(b), life insurance policy, etc.) to your trust.

What Happens to Assets Left Out of Your Trust?

For many people avoiding probate is one of the main reasons they set up a revocable living trust. Unfortunately, you may believe that once you sign your trust agreement, you’re done. However, if you fail to take the next step and change titles and beneficiary designations before you become incompetent or pass away, then your loved ones will be forced to complete the probate process in order to distribute your assets.

Which Assets Should, (or should not), Be Funded Into Your Trust?

In general, the following types of assets are typically appropriate to transfer into your trust as soon as it is created:

Real estate – homes, rental properties, vacant land and timeshares

Bank and credit union accounts – checking, savings, CDs

Safe deposit boxes

Investment accounts – brokerage, agency, custody

Notes payable to you

Life insurance – if you don’t have an irrevocable life insurance trust

Business interests

Intellectual property

Oil and gas interests

Personal effects – artwork, jewelry, collectibles, antiques

On the other hand, the following types of assets are treated differently for tax purposes, and should be evaluated on a case-by-case basis to determine whether they can, or should, be transferred into your trust:

IRAs and other tax-deferred retirement accounts – only the beneficiary should be changed

Incentive stock options and Section 1244 stock

Interests in professional corporations

Foreign assets – in some countries funding an asset into a U.S.-based trust causes adverse tax consequences, while in other countries trusts aren’t recognized or are ignored due to forced heirship laws

UTMA and UGMA accounts – your minor grandchild is the owner, not you as the custodian; instead, name a successor custodian

Cars, trucks boats, motorcycles and scooters –most states allow a small amount of assets, including vehicles, to pass outside of probate, in others a beneficiary can be designated for vehicles, and in others, vehicles don’t have to go through probate at all

However, it may be possible to name the trust as beneficiary of these assets, which is not the same as transferring them into trust. When the trust is named as beneficiary, the asset typically transfers on the death of the owner. It is vitally important to work closely with your attorney to determine what should go into your trust and what should stay out.  Also, before purchasing new assets, you should consult with your attorney to determine the most advantageous way to title your accounts, prepare transfer documents, and determine who to designate as beneficiary.

What Are the Benefits of Proper Funding?

Funding your trust makes it possible to obtain the best results from your trust-based estate plan:

Your incapacity trustee, rather than a court-appointed conservator or probate judge, will take control of your trust assets if you become mentally incompetent. Having a properly funded trust with backup trustees will allow you to avoid the need for court involvement in the management of your property if you are incapacitated during life.

After death, your settlement trustee, rather than a probate judge will take control of your trust assets. This will allow your loved ones to avoid the cost, delay, and aggravation of the court-supervised probate process.

Your trust will be easier to update as your wishes and circumstances change instead of doing things piecemeal through joint ownership, transfer-on-death accounts, or individual beneficiary designations.

Your final wishes will remain a private family matter instead of being publicized in the local probate court records.

Your incapacity or settlement trustee (i.e. surviving spouse & dependents) will typically have direct and immediate access to your trust assets without the need for obtaining a probate court order.

Your incapacity or settlement trustee will be able to manage, invest, sell and reinvest your trust assets without court intervention.

 The Bottom Line on Trust Funding

Trusts can provide certainty with regards to the distribution of assets after death, and can also be used to achieve tax efficiency. Also, regardless of whether or not you have a taxable estate, trusts can dramatically reduce the cost of estate administration, and can significantly reduce the time it takes to distribute your assets after death. However, many people fail to take the additional step of funding the trust once it has been created.

If you want to know more about how you can benefit from a living trust, or if you would like to review your existing trust agreement to make sure it is properly funded, please contact Baker, Braverman & Barbadoro, PC to make an appointment. – Thomas P. O’Neill, III.
