This must be a joke... two universities are gifted a 50,000 acre ranch to run and teach future ag students with, AND they both want to sell it?! I don't believe I'll be sending in my meager annual donation to UW after reading this, what a waste of a great teaching resource .
HORSE CREEK, Wyo.—A woman who donated her family's ranch to promote hands-on agriculture education at the University of Wyoming and Colorado State University says she's disappointed that the two schools haven't made better use of her gift as a teaching tool.
Now the universities are preparing to sell the Y Cross Ranch and Amy Davis says if she had it to do all over again, she wouldn't have donated the vast property between Cheyenne and Laramie in southeast Wyoming.
