[quote=Anonymous]15:59's rationale seems plausible. I went there 30 years ago. Miami had a private school vibe without private school tuition. I think that made it a more attractive option for the well-to-do families in the suburbs of Cincinnati and Cleveland who thought their kids could do better than hang out with the riff-raff at Ohio State. (I was from Indiana. The Ohio kids called OSU "McUniversity.") Without a private school endowment and with reduced state funding, a national shift in emphasis to STEM, not much in the way of research grants, a growing distaste for Greek life, and so forth, Miami maybe lost its competitive footing. To be honest, I'm taking OP's word for that. I hadn't really heard much about its stature diminishing. (I have learned that Ohio State has become *way* more competitive than it was in my college days). But it would make some sense. [/quote]
