[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]55% of Alabama students are from out of state[/b]. I think they've made a concerted effort to bring in full-pay OOS students to make the school seem more desirable, and since there aren't enough wealthy AL residents to support a school of that size. I think rushtok is going to attract even more OOS wealthy suburban girls who want their moment in the sun. [/quote]

well, of course they have to accept that many!  How many superstar bama students (4.47+ gpa/ 35 ACT/ etc. etc.) do you know?[/quote]

Are you inferring that a state that is 33% AA/Hispanic doesn't have any smart people?  That would be an ignorant and highly unsavory comment.[/quote]

Not PP, but this has nothing to do with the racial makeup of the state.  And everything to do with the fact that Alabama is the nation's fifth least educated state.  The public schools K-12 are some of the worst in the country---it doesn't matter your skin color.  Fact is only those who can afford private schools in that state get a good education.   Only 26% of population has a bachelor degree, whereas MA leads with 44%.  [/quote]

+1.  It’s a poorly educated state.[/quote]
