<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">For five years, the Regents have sponsored an Oklahoma Higher Education Grant Administrators Meeting, where all the grant officers meet, share concepts, resources, and issues, and make plans for collaborative activities. Statewide information about the status of Oklahoma higher education grantsmanship is provided, and we have a discussion focused on grantsmanship at the community college tier and at the university tier. This meeting has traditionally occurred in the summer. </span></font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">However, this year we will host the meeting in conjunction with Oklahoma Research Day in order to leverage transportation costs. So I am inviting you to meet from 9 to 11 am at Northeastern Oklahoma State University - Broken Arrow, <b><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">B-138</span></b>, on Oklahoma Research Day, November 13. That will give you time to browse the posters before and after the meeting. We will have an abbreviated meeting, but still provide opportunity to share on issues and gather statewide status data. </span></font></p>

The agenda is attached. I am also attaching the final report of the Grantsmanship Task Force prepared in 2007 for a revisitation. </span></font></p>
