Yes, Michigan was welcoming at a time when others were antisemitic. The gratitude was passed down through the generations.

Two generations later, those Jewish families are quite loyal with their kids and donations and Asians are becoming this way as well, as PP mentioned.

And a large portion, if not the majority, of both groups are from OOS:

Jews as a % of population in the state of Michigan, 0.9%; as a % of U Mich, 14%

Asians as a % of population in the state of Michigan, 3.3%; as a % of U Mich, 17.2%

Since OOS is about half of the total U Mich population, even assuming overrepresentation in the in-state enrollment, Jews and Asians would be even more overrepresented in the OOS enrollment.

Jews and Asians are overrepresented in most selective colleges relative to their population.

No surprises here.[/quote]
