It's over.
Despite the fact that the academic council recommended against it, despite the fact that the program brought in more tuition than it cost, and despite the fact that Nebraskans need & deserve this expertise, Earth & Atmospheric Sciences will be cut.

We do not have to tariff our economy into oblivion to get good-paying manufacturing jobs here in America.
We can invest in things like national high-speed rail and diversifying our energy sector to create jobs in every state while allowing us to compete with other nations.

Gene editing technology began by people studying salt marshes. Ozempic began by folks studying the venom of Gila Monsters. Support for basic science has empowered us to understand our world. Tethering it to applications health has transformed and saved countless lives.
