U of W almost doubled under Axworthy, went from 5-6k to 9k, now around 10, by it has been fairly stagnant since his departure. Will be interesting to see if they can get the growth up again with new leadership.

The economy and thus many industries and trades are becoming more highly specialized by the years. Many “skilled” industries are placing more value on experience and real training as opposed to degrees. This bodes well for RRC, and to an extent UW as well, and in my opinion makes the U if M’s golf course acquisition even more suspicious as I just don’t see them having anywhere near the level of growth required to really maximize that land.

Long term planning doesn’t seem to be U of m’s strong suit.
