ANR Update

To help with planning, I am writing to confirm this year's winter holiday closure schedule. ANR units including Research and Extension Centers, BOC Kearney, UCCE county offices and the Second Street Building in Davis will be closed from Monday, Dec. 24, 2018, through Tuesday, Jan.

Colleagues, As mandated costs continue to outpace available funds, UC ANR is taking action to ensure financial prudence while continuing to devote our limited resources to our priorities.

Colleagues, The 2018 CE Position Call process to develop and submit proposals ends tomorrow. The proposals are posted on the call web page: http://ucanr.edu/2018callforpositions.

UCCE advisors, UCCE specialists and academic coordinators are invited to attend a training workshop on conducting a needs assessment.

Dear Colleagues, It is with deep sorrow that I pass along the heartbreaking news that Chuck Ingels, longtime UCCE advisor in Sacramento County, has lost his battle with cancer. After his remarkable improvement last year, we had hoped he would remain in remission.
