Thank you for asking that. Have you talked to anybody from Green Bay or Stevens Point or Wausau about moving these agencies? I actually have, yeah. Thanks for asking about that. Specifically the county administrator up in Marathon County. I had talked to him when I heard the news that they had their two year campus shifting over to their technical college. I mean, what a great collaboration between the tech school and the uw. (18:09–18:16)
