I know little to nothing about it, but I just pulled this from their departmental page:

Study in one of the premier departments of its kind in the world and learn about managing resources (human, natural, cultural, financial, community, and physical) for recreation and tourism and improving community quality of life. Coursework in behavioral and life sciences engages you in the study of planning, positioning, leadership, problem solving, innovation, policy, marketing, and finance.

I see more UGA stuff in Bham than anything else, does not mean they are all "alums"; but I see more UGA bumber stickers than I do UAB
Interesting, I'm there quite a bit and I never really see any Georgia stuff.

It really isn't, though. 2010 to 2014 the metro area grew by 1.39% (and it is in the lower end of population meaning it takes a lot less growth to jack up the % number). It was the slowest growing city in the Top 50 metro areas in the southeast.
Austin : 13.23%
Houston : 9.62%
Orlando : 8.76%
San Antonio : 8.69%
Dallas : 8.22%
Charlotte : 7.37%
Nasvhille : 7.29%
Miami : 6.56%
Atlanta : 6.20%
Jacksonville : 5.46%
New Orleans : 5.21%
Richmond : 4.30%
Memphis : 1.39%
Birmingham : 1.39%

Interesting, I wonder why that is? I figured it had to do with the natural gas/oil stuff and that somehow North Dakota lucked out and South Dakota didn't.
Got to ask the government, they are the ones that decided to just put them somewhere.

Because Birmingham is like 85% Alabama and Auburn people and isn't really growing at all.
Birmingham metro has the slowest growth rate of any major metropolitan area in the South, with the exception of St. Louis.
If you look at all 121 metropolitan statistical areas inside the SEC footprint, Birmingham ranks 90th in growth rate (1.4% growth between 2010 and 2014) and ranks #50 in actual net growth (+15,725 people between 2010 and 2014).
The only major metro in the SEC footprint with a slower rate of growth would be St. Louis (#98 with a growth rate of just 0.67% since 2010).
No other major metros in the SEC footprint had a smaller net growth since 2010. St. Louis (+18,506) and Memphis (+18,401) are the next closest.
In terms of net growth, Houston is #1 (+569,764), followed by Dallas (+528,116), and then Miami (+365,184).
In terms of growth rate, The Villages, FL (22.40%) is the fastest, followed by Midland, TX (13.8%) and then Austin (13.2%).

Go to linkedin and in the search box search for the University. It lists all sorts of analytical stats for people with that school in their bio (degree, current company, current location, etc).
Can this be done on the mobile site, because I'm having issues with the search options. It's mainly showing individuals.

Midland, TX -- WTF is left there. I thought Texas Instruments shut down it's military semiconductor business there years ago. Plus it's located in the middle of BFE.

Not really. If you judge it just by construction downtown, the rate of growth down Hwy 280, and the soaring real estate prices Over-the-Mountain, then yes, you would think its booming.
But compared to other major Southern metros, Birmingham is growing very slowly.
Growth rate of Major Metros inside the SEC footprint (2010-2014):
13.2%- Austin
9.6%- Houston
8.8%- Orlando
8.7%- San Antonio
8.2%- Dallas
7.3%- Nashville
6.6%- Miami-Ft. Lauderdale
6.2%- Atlanta
5.5%- Jacksonville
4.8%- Tampa
3.1%- Kansas City
2.8%- Louisville
1.4%- Birmingham
1.4%- Memphis
0.7%- St. Louis
Even in terms of Net Growth, metro Birmingham added fewer people than two much smaller metro areas in the state:
+23,493- Huntsville (5.6% growth rate)
+17,846- Daphne-Fairhope-Foley (9.8% growth rate)
+15,725- Birmingham (1.4% growth rate)
+14,008- Auburn-Opelika (10.0% growth rate)
+7,599- Tuscaloosa (3.3% growth rate)
+2,456- Dothan (1.7% growth rate)

I don't know what is left in Midland, I just know that the people I know from Midland are filthy rich. A guy I knew in college had his dad fly their family plane down to College Station to pick him up whenever he wanted to go home.
Maybe the old money there is dying off though.

Gotta say, this lines up pretty closely with my non-scientific feeling of number of alums and folks I see driving around the city.
Like you said, skewed due to the students being here, but you don't see Tech people flying their colors more than you do AU or UA

Seriously?
This is the inherent flaw (failing?) of Mississippians: A dearth of exposure to people, places, and cultures beyond a very limited radius of a few hundred miles.
Really? Because linkedin lists locations for 183,477 Aggies.
Houston, Texas Area 56,272
Dallas/Fort Worth Area 40,928
Bryan/College Station, Texas Area 28,016
Austin, Texas Area 17,280
San Antonio, Texas Area 11,008
Killeen/Temple, Texas Area 2,275
Corpus Christi, Texas Area 1,769
Tyler, Texas Area 1,409
Odessa/Midland, Texas Area 1,110
Total 160,067
So 87% of Aggies on linkedin live in Texas.
quote:
It's also a huge reason why the state cannot seem to progress beyond a Nissan plant, Elvis shrines, and cotton as a means of income and prosperity.
Don't stop now, you're on a roll! Please tell me more.
ETA: The 87% statement is not correct. There are 266,809 Aggies on linkedin. The 183K are in areas where there are enough Aggies to make the cut. But I imagine if we had the full list the proportion in Texas would only go up.

It's called oil & gas.
And from 2010-2014, this area of Texas was booming.
Between 2010 and 2014, Midland went from population 141,671 up to 161,290 (+13.8%). Odessa went from 137,130 up to 153,904 (+12.2%).
In terms of growth rate, they are the #2 and #4 fastest growing metro areas in the United States. Of course, that rate of growth has likely come to a screeching halt with the price of oil plummeting.
My guess is that growth flat-lined in 2015, and there will be a decrease in 2016.
