I think these articles might be a glimpse into some Big 10's issues. They are losing not only population but it shocked me that only 10% of Michigan high school graduates even apply to U of Michigan. The big advantage of these huge land grant universities was the monopoly and instant loyalty they had with their in-state students. Now taxpayers of these mid western states are subsidizing more and more out of state and international students to fill their classes and their coffers with the added tuition. Thought it was interesting. Penn St has 30% of their students from out of state. Ohio State is at 12%. Appears many of these public universities are becoming more hybrid between being private and public institutions. What implications does this have in the actions they have been taking in trying to downplay their midwestern brand and branch out to new potential students in the east?
