You should have been in the car with me and Deb. You make a much better case than I did. 😁

Yes, the "but that's not what liberal means" argument (Deb told me cabinet members brought that up) was shouted down by the argument "yes yes, WE know what it means, but the prospective students don't, and their parents certainly don't" so from a marketing standpoint (ME: Cabinet worries about marketing? DEB: Marketing involves money, either spending or getting, and cabinet is ALWAYS worried about money!) the word "liberal" didn't test well. (ME: They actually said it didn't test well? DEB: It took about five minutes to get it all said, but in 25 words or less, "'liberal' didn't test well." I have to condense a lot of this for you, Jackster. It's only a 45-minute commute.)

"STEM," on the other hand, tested very well. 🙄

But yeah, you see where cabinet spends its time.
