[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why would they be better off at Colorado?[/quote]
Lifestyle, maybe. Winter is more fun in Colorado than Michigan, if you're into winter sports. [/quote]

I thought this was about choosing a college, not a vacation destination [/quote]
Well, if you have to live in a place for 4 years, it helps not to hate it. Michigan winters can be pretty brutal, so I could see it being an issue for someone coming from San Diego or Hawaii. [/quote]

I never heard any graduates of Michigan saying that  they hated their four years in Ann Arbor.  Perhaps your comment was a bit off? [/quote]
PP. I went to Michigan, so I'm not complaining about Ann Arbor, it's probably the best college town in the US. But, I grew up in Canada and my family lived in Michigan at the time, so I was used to the cold and gloomy darkness. There are probably a number of people from warmer states that might forego applying to schools like Michigan that are located in such cold locations. Our friend's daughter, who is graduating from Thomas Jefferson HS this year applied only to schools in warmer places. [/quote]
