How did Omaha go about working with local community colleges to form articulation agreements? Karen, can you address that?
Karen Spencer-May: We’ve been working on articulation agreements for the past 15, 20 years. What we’ve really tried to work towards now is dual credit opportunities for our students, and the reason that we did that was that the value for the student was so much better when it was actually a dual credit component. When it was articulation it was only honored by the community college for 18 months, whereas with the dual credit-even though they have to pay-then that credit is there for them. So, how did we go about working on that? We pretty much decided that, yeah, we’ve always had a close relationship with our community college. So, we would go to them. We would talk about what we were teaching. They would talk about what they are teaching, and then we would come to some type of agreement about it. Sometimes their curriculum was not as long because their quarters are not as long as their school year. So, what we could do is teach what they thought was important, and then add other thing
