Ayden is always very vocal about this issue and has authored many letters on behalf of NCSG to the finance team and the board. I think they were effective to a certain extent, we got back at least some of the CROP etc. So we gotta pick our battle.

<p>Farzi, Good question! <br>
</p>
<p>We had a lot of complaints and concerns about the budget this
year. Would it help forestall or prepare us for the budget battles
ahead if we knew more about what the finance team is thinking? So
much of our work depends on travel grants, CROPP and other types
of grants and funding. Should we try to be ahead of the curve this
year -- and see if some of the requests for re-expansion of
funding are falling on ears that are interested and sympathetic.</p>
<p>Best, Kathy<br>
