There is a state university fairly close to the site.   Class rooms for students as well as other facilities are being built on site.

As I understand it, the university did not have a full fledged department of paleontology prior to the discovery.  Some very fortunate and quite qualified peleontologist was invited to establish that department at the university. For that man, a  best dream come true was his.  Now, there are several professors in the department and all is growing.
