Yes, a similar quote at the 2000 Kick-off from Dean is below:

An angry mentor walked up to the Microphone during the 2000 Kick-off Q&A session and said, "How come you don't give us more time?! Why only six weeks?!" To which Dean simply replied, "Because we like you!"
Everyone laughed. Funny because its true!!
