Check out the situation at Ohio State, Wisconsin, Michigan State, Minnesota, etc. and you will see exactly the same thing. I hope you are correct about the future -- I'm not so optimstic. Thanks again for the report.

With regards to the other campuses you mention, is it a pure real estate play or do you think long term RM issues also played a role in terms of making it hard for chapters to keep a single property in hand for decades and sustain it financially?
