I know that UF, FSU, U of Alabama and Univ of South Carolina are all big southern state schools…guess I’d throw UGA and UNC in there as well (not UNC Chapel Hill…that seems to be in a league of its own), but I’m curious about the genral Vibe on these campuses. Are there big differences between these schools?..What might make a student choose one over the other (besides being in-state). Are some more conservative/liberal than others? Is one more diverse (particulary with people from other parts of the country) than another? Does one have a much stronger honors program? What else sets them apart from each other?
