It's just part of becoming a big state school. Michigan is about 50-50 out of state.
And the University of Alabama has been virtually unfazed by any economic downturns.
They've been on a building renaissance for 15 years and buying up land surrounding campus and building on it.
They completed a $600 million capital campaign 15 years ago and kicked off another $1.5 billion one last year of which $1 billion is already raised.
So Alabama really has been in a bubble with funds, donations, tuition raised and university owned mineral rights.

Many are. Huntsville and Mobile have become economic engines in not just the South but the country with diversified economies.
