During the protests (see my comment above), we all complained that the State and the University only cared about 2 money-making things (a) sports, and (b) donations from the fossil fuel industry. Everything else was lower on the list, if on the list at all. And now, 13 yrs later, nothing has changed. NOTHING.

Like I said, once I got signatures, I left the state even before the ink had dried.

Oy.
