<p>Dear Gina:</p>
<p> Amen to Rick's comments! You have always been so helpful in explaining things so that we could understand them. I always felt that you were on the students' side, but at the same time upheld the integrity of our policies.</p>
<p> I am so glad to still be on this OACRAO<a></a> email list---retirement is great!</p>

effective June 30. Over the years, you all have been a bedrock of knowledge (never mind that sometimes ‘rocks’ get thrown at me)! Seriously, you are the conscience and integrity on behalf of Oklahoma higher education and I have enjoyed almost every minute
I have spent with you all over the years.</span></p>
