Colleagues,
 
As many of you know, the Red River valley bordering MN and ND is
experiencing flooding that has virtually wiped out many towns.  Many farmers
and others will see dramatic decreases in their incomes in the next year.
This has implications for the U of MN system in that we may see higher
demand for financial aid in the next year.  In order to get a better handle
on the possible scope of the problem, we would like to id all of our
students who reside in the counties bordering the Red River.  However, the
only address info we have about our students is zip code.  Is there a SAS
table lookup for zip to county?  If not, any ideas on how to do the above
would be greatly appreciated.
 
Steve
