Mhm.
Yeah.
Well I started here in 1972
and I started as a senior accountant as the university has grown and
matured and developed. Uh My row became uh expanded over the number of
years and uh I'm presently in retirement transition retiring from the
position of senior associate VP. For finance and deputy treasurer. I think
a great capstone of a career here at the university. And other than uh
three years that I was with a national C. P. A firm upon graduation, I've
been with this issue. So it's been kind of, it's been really my home, so
to speak, it's part of a family and to receive the this recognition is
really extremely gratifying if it's an academic research building. I had
uh significant role in that if it's for some of the residents halls, some
of those have been done on a privatized space. Is it still can have an
impact on the university's credit rating, but in some cases uh financing
was done by a private developer. But we we monitored the arrangement At
the present time. We're in a short plateau as uh state works out as
budgetary problems. Uh but uh yes the university will continue to grow and
uh 40 years from now, I wonder what this place will really look like. You
know, it will be completely uh it will be mind bogglingagain
