Enough people do that, and colleges might start to take notice
Believe this: these schools will tank financially because they have already borrowed heavily to over build and planned their faculty budgets - including health insurance plans, which is their biggest employee expense- on forecasted full pay enrollment
Well healed Northern families who have 3 choices of where to spend their 50K a year ( 200 K over 4 years ) are just not going to send their daughter to a state where she might become a convicted felon , die or be forced to carry a pregnancy she does not want. The same families also don't want to see their sons exposed to risk for 4 years of becoming liable for 18 years of child support. After all, that is the family wealth that is being put at risk....

At a minimum they need to be educated that they are going into fundamentalist states, not a developed Western country. We literally need travel advisories from the State Department.

Yes! We don’t need you at Duke, Vanderbilt and Morehouse.
Clowns.
Yes, you actually really do. Especially the athletes and scholars. Your schools will drop in the rankings - mark my words.
You are the clueless one.
No, he/she isn’t clueless. Pull up any sport and look at the roster. Pull up graduate scholars in any program at Duke and Vanderbilt and see where they are from and where they did undergrad.
Those schools are not going to tank over abortions.

If you are a Tuition paying parent sending a daughter to a University in one of these ( mostly Southern US States) do you realize that - under most of their Trigger laws- if your daughter is raped at a Frat party and, that Rape results in a fertalized Egg, she will be convicted of a Felony for choosing not to carry that pregnancy to term
Will you continue with your plan to pay 50K a year to say, Tulane, Emory, Suwannee, Furman, and the like
Or take your Tuition dollars elsewhere....
