He also explained why more schools don’t take advantage of this financing tool as well as its limitations.

The funds can be used for projects consistent with the school’s charitable mission such as the construction or renovation of classroom buildings, administrative office buildings, and athletic facilities; land acquisition; architecture or engineering fees; and more.”
