CTE is critical to the economic recovery of this state, and I really appreciate your advocacy for it. We're not out of the woods yet on those three programs, but I hope that a combination of private sector support, scaled down budgets and finding other cuts we can backfill will allow us to save those three.

I hope you are able to keep these shops open, since I have learned by sad experience that once the capital equipment is sold (for pennies on the dollar), it is rare that such CTE shops ever come back to a campus. This is definitely "the year of priorities." Aaron:
