| Tenishgs, we are all entitled to our opinions, although I do not see the purpose of sharing my thoughts with people who aren't members of this forum and as such, cannot neither read all of my posts to their entirety.
Personally, I don't see why you take such offense to my opinion. I believe that the university should pursue its own self-interest, and in so doing, provide its students with the best possible education. I love the fact that Michigan is public, but that does not mean that the university should do so to its own detriment. Obviously, I was being facetious when I suggested that the state should provide Michigan with $3 billion/year but at the same time, since that is unrealistic, I also maintain that it is equally as ridiculous that a university that is trying to maintain high standards should continue to enroll 15,000+ in-state students in a state that isn't that populated. A state university simply cannot receive enough money from the state to provide a high standard of education to so many students students. |
