<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-size:13.0pt">Thank you so much for your support in nominating an Open Education leader who will represent our system at the
<b>2021</b> <b>Cascadia Open Summit</b>. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-size:13.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-size:13.0pt">Among the many excellent nominees, we chose
<b><span style="color:black;background:white">Inés</span> Poblet, Associate Professor from Whatcom Community College’s ESLA program.
</b>We felt her focus on developing Anti-Racist open resources for teaching and learning English was particularly timely for our system and we hope that the Cascadia OER Summit platform helps amplify that work and maybe creates some new collaborative opportunities
in the OER communities of the Pacific Northwest and California.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-size:13.0pt">For those of you who are new to this, the
<b>Cascadia Open Education Summit</b> is a conference co-sponsored by SBCTC, BCCampus, Open Oregon, and the California State University System. Last held in 2019, it showcases our region's deep commitment to Open Education. The next Cascadia Summit will
<b>take place virtually April 27-29, 2021</b>. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-size:13.0pt"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-size:13.0pt">Thank you again for your willingness to be involved. It was gratifying and inspiring to hear about the work many of you are up to in the Open Education space -- both from the leaders and those colleagues
who supported them. Open education in our state is in excellent, expert hands. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
