Colleges who already have a DCL comment from the 21/22 AY can add a new effective dated row and update the description to make the comment ‘generic’ removing reference to any specific Dear Colleague Letter. This step includes making changes to the Description and Short Description.

The Event Definition that is set up after this step can be customized to reference the specific DCL for the applicable award year.
