wow! if he added another $5,000, it would be just enough to cover the tuition for an out of state student to DDI’s/FSU’s “pay to work” program!

color me impressed! i think some CEO deserves a big bonus for ‘his’ largess!

@ Paul

p.27 ‘cost-effective’ is the operative word. vfx soldier studies should be part of the ‘develop awarness’ bit!

“The success of our education business depends on our ability to develop new programs in a cost-effective manner on a timely basis, develop awareness among potential students and enroll and retain students. “

@ Paul
student use. page 25 of the DD filings. worth reposting to for thoes who missed it.

“If we do not continue to receive governmental grant funding, primarily from the State of Florida and the Cities of West Palm Beach and Port St. Lucie, Florida, or otherwise fail to meet the target thresholds for continued grant funding, it may adversely affect our operations. ”

incentives use.

“Film production incentives and subsidies offered by foreign countries and states where we do not have operations, or our failure to continue to enjoy such incentives and subsidies offered by foreign countries and states where we do have operations, could affect our ability to secure work on visual effects and animation projects. “

Not every union has to be positive. And with people like him supporting it, I’ll wait and see what it will actually do before I cheer…

judge by what he does, not what he says.

like politics. its puerile to just think it will happen because someone just says it.
