Cspan 2. Susan kay coles james, after many years, first as a scholar scholar and later as the trustee. You took over the reins in december of 2017, almost two years. What were your primary goals when you took the position . Mrs. James i have been given very specific instructions by our board. They were very interested in settling the organization down.

It is a historical moment to be on stage with you. Im going to start with you. Mr. Sanchez. [applause] o ....

But they got over it before very long. We welcome you here and were glad youre here. Yesterday i received a letter from s ....
