[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What % of Hillsdale is out of state students? I assume it's got more OOS kids than any undergrad in Michigan, outside of Ann Arbor.[/quote]

I believe two-thirds come from OOS (which, if I'm not mistaken would be a higher percentage than that at  UM-Ann Arbor).[/quote]

[b]Ann Arbor is 50% oos[/b][/quote]

Kind of a shame that UM-Ann Arbor doesn't focus more on educating citizens of Michigan.  It is, after all, a taxpayer- supported university.[/quote]

The state of Michigan generously kicks in 14% of the school's general fund budget. The retrenchment in state funding is what drives OOS enrollment. [/quote]

Nevertheless, UM-Ann Arbor has a duty to educate Michiganders.  If that's not the case, then why not take the school private?  All you'd have to do is jack up tuition a bit (for those currently paying in-state tuition rates) to make up for the 14% that the state currently supplies to the school's budget.

It does educate Michiganders - about 50% of UM undergrads are from Michigan. [/quote]
