Amazing statistic.
I wonder if these statistics are similar to other states? Was this taken in Winona, MN?
Yes, I took this photo on the Winona campus.

My goodness, that's such an awful statistic. Great idea to display t-shirts like this - really hits home. Shocking.
Shocking statistic. I wish there was a lot less t-shirts on that line.
