'The other finalists considered by the company were all midsize communities that house major universities: Greenville, S.C., home of Clemson University; Morgantown, W.Va. (West Virginia University); Bloomington, Ind. (Indiana University); Columbia, Mo. (University of Missouri); and Laramie, Wyo. (University of Wyoming). Dubuque is home to three small colleges - Clarke College, Loras College and University of Dubuque - with a combined enrollment of just more than 4,000 students. But the larger Dubuque region includes technical and community colleges, and University of Wisconsin-Platteville. UW-Platteville Chancellor David Markee and Southwest Wisconsin Technical College President Karen Knox were among the college officials who lobbied IBM.' Hah I've been to Laramie..cute little town dominated by the campus but so isolated on the flat high planes two hours to Denver and four hours to Jackson Hole the closest signs of life. So the state of Wisconsin got screwed because they have too many engineering students at a newer campus located so close to Iowa?
