  2. Add my voice to Anu's to congratulate Rosa.
    Anytime we can build public positive sentiment for the ombuds function and get away from the cloak of secrecy (while maintaining confidentiality) the field is advance.

    Thanks Rosa for raising us all up on the quality of your contribution to UW-M!
