The other question I have, do you have Macaulay students?
1:05:27
Because I know you said earlier So there's a pipeline from City College.
1:05:31
So I I just want to understand that.
Carmen Renée Green
1:05:33
There has not been a pipeline really from Macaulay students.
1:05:37
The good news about first this, you know, the period of time that we're with the graduate center is that we'll be able to work closely.
1:05:42
I've met your your dean of the Macauley school.
1:05:45
Wonderful, young woman.
1:05:48
And, you know, we look forward to partnering with them.
1:05:51
But we we again, this stand alone status allows us to sort of expand new opportunities and new pathways for our students.
1:06:00
You know, for instance, our 3 year accelerated, bachelor's program.
1:06:04
I have no problem with our students going 4 years.
1:06:07
You know, I mean, there are other things that they may be interested in seeing and it makes them a better doctor.
1:06:15
We're just interested in getting kids through.
1:06:18
And so, there's just a lot of we do, and we're looking forward to these conversations.
1:06:24
It's it's really gonna be an exciting time at this medical school.
1:06:26
Okay.
