[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We flew into Milwaukee, rented a car and drove to visit.  Campus is beautiful, however, student population is very white[/quote]

Milwaukee is by far the smallest city in the Midwest. Wisconsin in the smallest Great Lakes state by over a million people. Yet it has the second best state university…[/quote]

UI-UC in the immediate region, and then UCLA, Berkeley, UVA, Texas, UNC, Florida, Washington and probably UGA, too. But “second” after all of them, sure.[/quote]

Seriously I’m sick to death of these dumb bad take on state universities. Look at the states you’ve listed, they have double, triple, and even quintuple the amount of people that Wisconsin has. This naturally makes them more competitive. BUT THIS DOES NOT MEAN THEY ARE BETTER. Look at the department ranks for each and compare them to Wisconsin. Not even close. History, chemistry, English, history, math, economics, Wisco is better than all these schools.

A school like Florida does no important research, contributes nothing to society, and is only elevated by having 20  MILLION more people than Wisconsin is. Can you do math??[/quote]

When you tire of the tantrum and you’re ready to join the rest of us in the 21st century, we’ll be here.[/quote]

This is the 21st century, it has better department NOW. I don’t get why employers and prospective students just ignore this. UW has such a mid reputation now, probably because it’s run by Wisconsinites who don’t care about prestige or giving their students good paying jobs. OOS students pay good money to go to this school, and being known as “Michigan’s backup” isn’t good enough. Why does UW always have the most incompetent administration. [/quote]
