I am sure everyone is adjusting their office processes and procedures to comply with all the new regulations. As president of the Oklahoma Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators for 2012-13, I am looking forward to working with you this year and helping to keep our membership aware of the changes. The OASFAA board is already looking ahead to our Spring 2013 conference and the many issues we hope to address through our General Sessions and Interest Sessions. We plan on having a training session in the fall to assist our members in keeping up to date on the new regulations, and we will have support staff training in the spring.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>At this time I would like to present the members of the board for the coming year:<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> President – Becky Garrett, University of Central Oklahoma<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> Past-president – Mendy Schmerer, University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> President-elect – Lori Boyd, Oklahoma State University<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='text-indent:.5in'>Secretary – Mary Lou Bledsoe, Oklahoma State University Institute of Technology <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> Treasurer – Dustin Davidson, Moore Norman Technology Center<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> Treasurer-elect – Audra Main, University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> Delegate-at-large (2 year term) – Jonna Raney, Oklahoma Baptist University<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> Delegate-at-large (1 year term) – Karen Jeffers, Tulsa Community College<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Contact information for the board members is available in the directory on the OASFAA website.
