OCAST was a pretty terrible fit for me, so I resigned back in November and
I am now back in the higher ed grants world. I am the new Director
of Sponsored Programs at Langston. I've heard you've been busy
helping the faculty and staff with grants information and putting on
workshops over the past couple of years, and both Dr. Smothers and
Nathaniel Jones speak very highly of you, of course. I report to Dr.
Smothers and Nate reports to me. I wanted to add Nate and myself to
your list of Grant Resource People and update Dr. Smothers' information as
it has changed. Also, please remove the hyperlink to the Office of
Sponsored Programs website. I have been informed that it is a website
from about 5 years ago and Nathaniel Goodman who was the Director of
Sponsored Programs at the time is no longer at Langston. I am going to
have IT remove it from Langston's site. We are currently working on
updating the website.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
