Instead, she ends up developing relationships with their children and proceeds to teach several of them photography. Kochi, Avijit and Shanti are among several who begin to document their own lives, the light and dark. Some discover that photography is their passion and artistic voice. Each must decide how she or he will continue to use their new skills or whether art can open doors to more education or a way out of poverty and enslavement.

To aid budget managers in submitting Existing Budget Increase/Decrease (budget maintenance) requests, the budget office will email budget baseline worksheets to users this week. Please wait to submit Existing Budget Increase/Decrease requests until you have received these worksheets. If you are a budget manager of an auxiliary unit and are making budget maintenance adjustments, you are required to attach the baseline worksheets to your forms prior to submission. See direction pdf for more information.

Written directions and instructional videos have been created to assist users with form completion. These items and the link to the Planning & Budgeting SharePoint form are posted to the FY2020 Planning & Budgeting link on the Finance Department’s SharePoint page and available for users today, March 18.
