I think you're probably right about the long-term efficiencies of the
arrangement you describe, but I have to confess surprise that your UC
doesn't see a material difference between contracting with Faxon to
acquire materials and contracting with Faxon to define the terms of
IUPUI's contracts with third parties.

Are other public institutions participating in this program?
