<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Calibri Light",sans-serif">I wanted to let you know that I have accepted a position at the University of Oklahoma and my last day working for the State Regents will be Wednesday, January 18<sup>th</sup>.
It has been an honor and a pleasure working as your liaison for the OSRHE over the past few years. I’m lucky to have worked with such a dedicated group of professionals and I feel privileged to have seen how important the work you do is up close. I’m happy
that I’ll still be in Oklahoma, which means there’s a good chance we’ll see each other again.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

decisions will be made about my replacement; I don’t know whether there will be an Interim Assistant Vice Chancellor, or if the position may be modified if and before it is posted. Please rest assured that our competent Academic Affairs staff will ensure
that your needs will continue to be met.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
