Thank you, Casimir Brewer.

1:04:26

We're also going to have that hearing on November 19th, so the cast will be back to talk about our agencies and where we are on vacancies.

1:04:35

So as you could already see the preview, This is the concern that all of us on the council have right now with what's happening on city agencies, but November 19th, Gil, I know you'll be here.

1:04:46

That's gonna be our opportunity to really hone in on those questions on the vacancies and where we are in agencies.

1:04:52

I think that council member brewer made some really, really good points, things to consider.

1:04:57

That's why we wanted to have all of you here at the table to ask these questions.

1:05:02

I'm gonna ask about what supports are available to students.

1:05:06

So if a student goes through the civil service ambassador program or goes through any of the programs that are specialized to kind of enhance our civil service experience, what supports are available to them, to prepare for the civil service exam, and to support them in that journey.
