The University of Alabama, in the heart of the Deep South, has a surprisingly large Catholic student population.
Not sure why that's surprising to the whomever wrote the article.

Anyone who has spent time at Alabama or knows the middle/coastal parts of the state knows there are sizeable Catholic populations due to the French, much like Louisiana.

It is a little surprising it's as high as 7,000. That's almost 25% of the student population. I'd have never predicted it to be that high, even with the Mobile kids and how many out of state kids now attend UA.

Surprising to me.

Just assumed.
