Finally! Some Good News!

I just found out that NSF released the next year's funding on the grant having to do with Alaska Native Corporations. (I was in Portland for this project two weeks ago.) The release of funds is a bit early, but it will be a huge relief because now I have funds to get to Alaska sometime this summer or early fall in order to do some research, I will have funds to hire a grad student to help me out with this project some, and I will be able to use the summer salary funds in the grant that will relieve some financial pressure this summer.

Whew! I really needed some good news.

Hi Jeanne,
Thank you! I mean, I knew I was going to get the money, it was just a matter of WHEN and sooner is really a relief than later would've been. I'm glad you had a great Fulbright Orientation!
Stay cool!
