[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wealthy out of state students at Umich have a habit of calling locals and in-state peers “peasants”. They also say it’s “easy” for in-staters to get admitted, ergo you’re dumb flyover trash; we’re smarter, richer and more sophisticated. There was a nationwide news event at Umich a few years ago where frats and sororities full of OOS rich kids did millions of dollars in damage to some Michigan ski resorts. They justified it by claiming the places were dumps anyways; which perfectly encapsulates the general outlook OOS students have for the state when they’re trapped in Ann Arbor for four years. And of course at graduation they all b-line for the airport and turnpikes.[/quote]
I am a UMich alum who attended as a wealthy out-of-state student. It is true that most OOS students don't stay in the area after graduation, but that's true of pretty much every single school that is in a small and/or college town.

The rest of the post is so off base I don't even know where to begin. [/quote]
