to be extremely challenging, even when compared against previous periods for our University. Over the next 15 months we anticipate a significant loss of revenue and expect to see increased expenses related to the effects of COVID-19. This is going to have

your perspective. Then, share your insights with <b><a href="mailto:svpcfo@arizona.edu?subject="><span style="color:#AB0520">svpcfo@arizona.edu</span></a></b>. The Taskforce will incorporate them into a proposal to President Robbins.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
