[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It has to do with the fact that there used to be quotas on Jews at the elite east coast schools and so the smart Jews who were shut out of them went to schools like Michigan (Wisconsin a big one too). And it just became a ripple effect. [/quote] I never knew this. Do a lot of Jews go to school in the midwest?[/quote] Yes a lot of Midwest universities did not have quotas like elite East Coast schools. Once Jews started academically excelling, Ivy Leagues tried to keep the percentage of Jews down so WASPs could still get in even if they were not as academically qualified. Google Jewish quotas Harvard and you can learn more. Many Midwestern schools like Michigan, Wisconsin, Indiana and UIllinois did not limit the amount of Jews at their school.[/quote]
