There's a lot of turnover because a lot of people who go back to the mainland for other reasons. We need new nurses all the time, and traveling nurses and that makes it a challenge.

I think it was what we were expecting. I don't think it was what students were expecting.

Statistically speaking, the chances of moving up (the) income distribution (curve) is less than it was a decade ago. Students with debt face real concerns with the shrinking middle marketplace.

Pasco students are definitely participating (in the boycott). It appears that may be a major reason.
