Yes.  Granted that the students are "in town" for a mere eight months out of
the year.  But, how much money do they spend at local businesses over the
course of those eight months?  Not to mention Dad's Weekend (WSU and UI),
Mom's Weekend (WSU and UI), Homecoming (WSU and UI), Mardi-Gras (UI), Lionel
Hampton Jazz Festival (UI), etc. etc.?  I think you get the picture.

Take care,
