00:00.150 --> 00:03.230
This truly is a remarkable moment and

00:03.230 --> 00:05.397
I'm delighted to have the privilege of

00:05.397 --> 00:08.830
welcoming you to this signing ceremony .

00:08.840 --> 00:11.440
As I thought about this moment this

00:11.440 --> 00:14.890
morning , I realize how

00:14.890 --> 00:18.770
important this moment is . Not just for

00:18.770 --> 00:21.010
us here at La Sierra University , not

00:21.020 --> 00:23.720
just for our partners to the north , um ,

00:23.730 --> 00:26.550
in Corona , but for really the Inland

00:26.560 --> 00:29.230
Empire and beyond Corona division is

00:29.230 --> 00:31.470
part of the patchwork quilt of

00:31.470 --> 00:33.500
riverside county and , and just the

00:33.500 --> 00:35.611
community in general . And I can tell

00:35.611 --> 00:37.667
quickly that La Sierra University is

00:37.667 --> 00:39.556
also so , you know , part of that

00:39.556 --> 00:41.444
patchwork , cool . And you know ,

00:41.444 --> 00:43.611
together , everybody comes together to

00:43.611 --> 00:43.093
make that cool , come together and work .

00:43.103 --> 00:45.533
We hire students that student hires for

00:45.543 --> 00:47.654
part time work as they go to school .

00:47.654 --> 00:49.763
So we have some several student

00:49.763 --> 00:52.643
opportunities available and we hope to ,

00:52.653 --> 00:54.709
with this E . P . A . In place , you

00:54.709 --> 00:56.709
know , we can engage L . S . U . In

00:56.709 --> 00:58.820
other ways . Um , that E . P . A . Of

00:58.820 --> 01:01.403
course it talks about the loaning of

01:01.403 --> 01:03.846
equipment . We can share faculty and

01:03.846 --> 01:07.486
staff from both places and cultivating

01:07.486 --> 01:10.306
this region . Okay with things like our

01:10.306 --> 01:12.195
educational partnerships are step

01:12.195 --> 01:14.306
program are stem program , right ? Is

01:14.306 --> 01:16.726
absolutely critical to continuing that

01:16.726 --> 01:18.893
line to renew and continually renewing

01:18.893 --> 01:21.059
that resource of talent to bring it in

01:21.059 --> 01:23.282
our doors so we can keep delivering the

01:23.282 --> 01:25.004
finest technology , the finest

01:25.004 --> 01:26.893
equipment , you know , to our war

01:26.893 --> 01:27.526
fighters . It's game changing
