[nagdu] different schools

That is absolutely true and I think was addressed completely in a previous
post, perhaps it is in the archives.

Stacy,
    I feel it is important that we share accurate information to others. The

assertion that GDF does not transfer ownership upon graduation is not 
entirely correct. Under most circumstances, GDF does transfer ownership upon

graduation. jenine can provide more details, since she is on staff for that 
school.

Fraternally yours,
Marion Gwizdala
