[quote=Anonymous]Yup. Basically, I think we're seeing the privatization of the strongest state universities as the result of budgetary pressures. Those OOS tuitions are tempting and the fact that OOS students with strong credentials are willing to pay them only makes the state school more prestigious. It becomes a national university with a more diverse student body. What's really messed up is that if 3-4 such schools could just shift a significant minority (10-25% total) of their in-state candidates to the others, they'd all end up with more $ and prestige will serving pretty much the exact same demographic. Meanwhile, lots of parents whose taxes have been supporting each system will find themselves paying Ivy/SLAC prices to send their kids to a state school.[/quote]
