<p>Thank you Jennifer and Terry. </p>

<p>And another thank you to Gerry who has been extremely accommodating with my last minute addition to the retreat. <span style="font-size: 12pt;">I am looking forward to it. </span></p>

<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I have successfully subscribed to the listserv, but is there a FACTC webpage I can use to get oriented? The one that comes up when I google it seems to be fairly old. I think I found a more recent one, but I can't seem to find
my way back there. </span></p>

The tardiness of this report, compared to years past, is due to three special legislative sessions and continuing negotiations around the capital budget. As we know, there is still no capital budget.<br>
<br>
You will note that the format has changed to provide more extensive detail about legislation that passed and how it impacts our office and colleges.<br>
<br>
Many thanks to Julie Walter for compiling the masses of information included in this report!<br>
