it also gave the accjc [inaudible] city college pass adnew process. new process it presented to the city college. it was called restoration. restoration was aprosthat the accjc unfolded to give the college a opportunity to reactivate or come from under the termination decision. if not for the lawsuit city college may have closed. there are-city college has amazing support, but the accjc is the only accredter and losing accredidation is a hefty price as many who speak will explain. at this point the courts injunction is valid. city college opted into the process where it is seeking review of the-it is seeking the remedy the court laid out so it is in the process and opted in and in the process of reviewing the written report and making comments. the city attorneys office wants to do everything and has done everything it can to keep city college open and we are heartened city college opted in. that process isn't concluded, but it should conclude in the coming months. i'm happy to take questions or comments, but that the status of the litigation at prese
