I had one daughter go to UA (long-time Bama fans); the other daughter who was always a Bama fan went to AU and unfortunately is now a die-hard Aubie. Education was equal, in my opinion. UA daughter got a nursing degree. AU daughter got a degree in Chem E and went on to med school. From a parent's perspective, sorority life seems better at AU. Would not have wanted my daughter to join sorority at Bama for multiple reasons -- cost being the primary one. Both had great experiences and got a great education.
Scholarships were better at Bama at that time. Not sure about now. Daughter #2 actually had a little higher ACT score but didn't get room and board like daughter #2 at Bama. Both great schools.

I've seen this a lot lately unfortunately

I get it. I was in a fraternity at Bama and would never allow my son to be in one after that experience.

It still is and is really hard to beat UA's scholarship offers. That is why I am not understanding why so many in-state students are going elsewhere

My son was raised a Bama fan but went to AU for their aerospace program. He is now a doctoral candidate and is still a Bama fan.
