I'll just leave this here...

Where most Michigan grads live.

Obviously, this is more diverse than Alabama, particularly because of the large international student pop, but the fact remains that it is also a state school serving a state and most of its graduates stay in the state.

I never said for a second that Michigan wasn't a better school than Alabama, but if you're looking at average salaries you're not getting the whole picture. The average starting salary in Michigan is also higher than in Alabama. Michigan is also better than most Ivy League schools as well because there is a lot less public sector employment and Michigan is a state with a large business base....doesn't make Michigan better than an Ivy...or worse for that matter. The fact remains that the education you get at any university is not significantly different and is largely determined by you.

I didn't want to live in Midland either...that's why I quit when they wanted me to take a promotion there. Nothing against Michigan, other than my dislike of snow and preference for flip flops.

Side note: Bernie Madoff went to Alabama, but he doesn't do much hiring these days.
This whole conversation is getting stale. So last thing i will say on this is -- saying the education you get is the same regardless of where you go is like saying, a football player will grow as a player the same if you goes to Alabama or South Alabama. It just isn't true.

The top schools academically have the top professors, state of the art facilities and access to world renowned minds others school do not. THAT is what makes them one of the best.

In the end -- I'd rather go back to talk about football.
