Our board members have already been hard at work for the membership to get things off the ground and running this year.  I look forward to reporting on the progress and decisions of the Board at the conclusion of the meeting.

I hope everyone is surviving the heat wave, severe weather, and the rush of preparations for the upcoming fall semester.  Thank you for making an impact for our students, families, institutions, and SASFAA.

Have a great evening,
