I do not have any additional or further clarifying info to provide to narrow this request, other than what you see in the message below. If it is unclear, or you are unable to fulfill any or all parts of this request, please specifically cite where a reason for denial is justified under NC Public Records Law.**

If any / all of this info is already publicly available online, then please provide a link to where it can be accessed:

A. Financial Information.

Please provide the annualized, line-item budget with expenditure totals for any category dedicated to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, at Guilford Technical Community College.
