    • There are going to be budget cuts coming, but our group should not be affected too much due to grant funding

    • We have received permission to fund Rob Kooper
    • We hired Santiago Nunez Corrales who will be working with Matt Berry and IN-CORE
    • There has been a culture shift over the history of NCSA.  We should be proud of our work and show off our work in all meetings.
