with my cover letter.</span></p>

either SPED or SPSY, at my request.</span></p>

<span style="font-family: Aptos, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; color: rgb(36, 36, 36);">I am pleased with our strong submission; however, I still encourage all of us to remain realistic in our expectations this year. This year, we learned in advance from the
Office of the Provost that our college could expect to receive between 0 and 1 approved proposals. This foreknowledge led me to solicit only one submission that I requested to align with a known funding opportunity to increase our chances of success. Since
that time, much has changed in our reality, and I am now newly conscious of how grateful I am to have each of you here in the right place, regardless of the outcome of the next submission.</span></p>
