asking for examples. I made the suggestion to reach out to the DEOC, so I thought a survey would be easier for you all to submit information. She then said she would also reach out to operating budget folks at each of the institutions, to which I said was
fine, but there isn't always good communication/sharing across the roles, so reaching out to both would give a more holistic perspective.</span></p>

already out and to extend that deadline from January 3 to later that week. I haven't received confirmation on that correspondence, but I imagine that's why Stephanie set the deadline to January 2, to gather the responses and prepare them to be sent by the

a way you can check with Stephanie Winner to see how far this request went, and why it didn’t just come directly to the DEOC?
