"The University of Mississippi" being 50% kids from Mississippi is crazy to me


Alabama is less than 50%. I was originally against it, but I think the influx of kids from around the country has been good for the school and the region. Some things that have been the status quo for decades just because "they are what they are" have been flipped upside down because of the diversity of campus the last decade. And, some of those kids stay behind and continue to add diversity to the state.

Every state is different, though.

Those out of state kids at OM and 'Bama are there to teach local students how to read.

I understand why they do it and if I hadn't gone to A&M I think I would have rather gone out of state than somewhere like Tech. It's just odd to see and think about for a public school (Vandy's numbers aren't surprising at all).

That OOS tuition $$ ain't too bad either.
