<p class="MsoNormal">Next…if you have any questions for the OSRHE (Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education) please submit them to me. It is our custom to have an open forum at the Spring Policy Workshop for the Regents staff to address any/all concerns
and burning questions of the membership. We love it when we can watch them squirm & perspire right before our very eyes…so send me those questions!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Finally, it is my pleasure to announce to the membership that a formal bid was presented to the SACRAO (Southern Association of College Registrars & Admission Officers) executive committee for Oklahoma to host the annual SACRAO conference
in 2016. We presented bids from both OKC & Tulsa. The SACRAO executive committee formally accepted the bid from OKC. So SACRAO in OKC in 2016! We will show the 12 other member states true Oklahoma hospitality! The event will be held at the Cox Convention
Center and should bring 600+ professionals to OKC. This is a great professional development opportunity for all involved in recruiting, admissions, registrars, & enrollment management. The dates will be February 6-10, 2016.<o:p></o:p></p>
