Yanks are invading Southern Schools

Southern universities are reportedly growing in popularity compared to elite colleges in the Northeast, with students explaining what factors they believe are driving the trend.

Charge an extremely hefty "northern" out of state admission.

The South is just better. The people are more pleasant and funny, the food is more tasty, and even the humid summers are preferable to being snowed in.

I have some yankees living on my street and man, they are OK folks, but I think everyone from up north is on the spectrum or something.

It’s a long-term JD Vance plan. Get them to the south - then convert them all.

Given a choice... I don't know why anybody would want to spend a winter in college up north. From November to April it is pretty much impossible to hang out outside to do things. And basically impossible to scope the talent on campus since everybody is wearing winter coats and caps and the like.

The hilarious thing about this is that a significant chunk of the faculty at both Austin and College Station were not excited about joining the SEC, thinking it would hurt their academic reputation.

Used to travel quite a bit. Always liked to fly with something (often discreet) with the Alabama 'A'.

Several times, I would be on a plane back to Birmingham or Atlanta, carrying a young student with family to visit Alabama. The Saban effect was very real.

This…. UK is about 65 miles from Cincinnati. Also, UK is a ‘safe’ school in the region when kids can’t get into a BIG school.
