[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“No one, with a semblance of intelligence, is complaining instate that Michigan has so many out of state students. Michigan residents don’t care, as long as the university maintains its lofty status and matriculates most of its top students.”

You’re spreading pure bullshit. Most Michigan teens don’t even apply to U. of Michigan because everyone knows half the seats are reserved for OOS students. This has been a complaint for decades.[/quote]

What a ridiculous statement. If a student is qualified, they are going to apply. Most Michigan teens who aren’t qualified will not apply.  It’s called self selection and nobody likes to be turned down.   I lived in Michigan for decades and never heard a resentment towards the out of state students who choose to attend.  Actually, I’d say it has had the opposite effect.  It’s a source of pride for residents that so many out of staters and internationals pay top dollar to attend the flagship. In the meantime, you’re one of those without the semblance of intelligence. Congrats[/quote]
