[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So you are calling Michigan weak academically?[/quote]

I wouldn't think OP is calling Michigan weak academically.

However, on a side note we decided NOT to apply after the armed protest at the State House and the plot to kidnap the Gov. We decided the MW hasn't changed enough in the last 40 years and have zero interest in DC having a "proud boy" as a roomie[/quote]

I know the admissions office is weeping over your decision [/quote]

My husband and I both attended schools in the Midwest. College towns are far more liberal than the surrounding areas. The Proud Boys aren’t the people you’d find there.[/quote]

I attended University of Illinois a few decades ago coming from Main Line Philadelphia and I was shocked at the deep seated racism and anti-semetism at the school. Some examples:
    * sororities and and fraternities were segregated and did not pledge across perceived " different race" lines - this included SE Asians ( Pakistanis ). We had no social mixers with Sammy, for example because ummmm " dating leads to marriage .. and I am not sure the alumni and our parents would approve of that " full stop

* I often dined with teammates who were AA. I once had a strange guy appear in my dorm doorway to " warn me" that " That kinda thing.... isn't tolerated here " He dissapeared after giving me his " message"

* People would make jokes every time Angie and Jesse kissed on camera in All My Children... it was a mystery to me what they found so funny so I asked . " the lips" was the response.... these were college aged girls who had all gotten above 1300 on SAT and all went on to work as CPA's or Ad Execs or in Finance in Chicago.

They always said the same thing when I challenged them , " I am not a racist ...Its just the way we were raised" [/quote]
Such disgusting people[/quote]
