At this point, it's a very narrow partnership, not any sort of gamechanger

There's a partnership to do AI research. It's going to be great for some doctoral students...maybe 5-10? It won't impact 99.9% of our students. What are the opportunities for alumni that are now opened up? People seem to be misinterpreting the fact that the Innovation Campus will be a neighbor to Amazon HQ2 as some sort of fantastic partnership. It's not. Maybe someday it will be, but for now we're really just neighbors.
