And they finally turned over the data. And if you look, I had the data from back in the early 90s. So I always said, as we're going in this budget process, We have as many kids in the UW today as we did in the early 90s, but we have 6,000 more staff at the UW than we did in the 90s with the same amount of students. Now the system will say, well, it's supports for students, it's providing other services, it gets them out of the system quicker, et cetera. (43:52–44:04)
