<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F4E79;mso-style-textfill-fill-color:#1F4E79;mso-style-textfill-fill-alpha:100.0%">I received word this morning that the Provost’s Office has extended the university deadline for these honorary degree nominations until
Friday, December 21. I understand the interim provost also shared this news late yesterday at the Quarterly Leadership Report Meeting with deans and unit heads. To give you some background on the timeline for this process, on November 15 I stumbled across
a call for nominations that had been posted to the provost’s website. I immediately requested an extension for CALS to the November 30 deadline and this has now been approved for the entire university, but we have had to operate until today with the original
deadline at hand. Shane asked me to alert you right away that <u>the ballot for your votes will now remain open through next Wednesday, December 5</u>. If you didn’t have a chance to attend yesterday’s meeting, to review the materials about the potential
CALS nominee or to vote, here are the links for all. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

all those who worked under such a tight deadline in order to review the nomination from AREC --- and especially to the faculty in AREC who also worked quickly in order to advance a nomination. We’ll continue to work with the Provost’s Office to secure reasonable
deadlines. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
