tenisghs, Michigan no longer has any commitment to tha state. Michigan remains a top university today in spite of the state's attempts to destroy it. If the state of Michigan really cared for the University, it would give it $3 billion annually, not a pitiful and insulting $300 million. Like I said, Michigan's current operating budget is $4.5 billion and the state provides just $300 million (7%) of that. Pathetic if you ask me. I am not suggesting the University should become private or no longer offer discounted rates to in-staters, but I do believe that Michigan should not set aside more than 30% of its undergraduate seats to in-staters.
