I had been thinking of 'Bama, but being far OOS, I'm not sure I want to go to a school where I'm already starting a leg down for recruitment for the simple reason I'm not from the south. It seems so crazy to me to be so discriminated against bc I'm not from Smalltown, AL. I will probably not apply sadly, because I LOVE everything else about your school. I've never heard of a school where there is such a marked difference between OOS kids and IS or southern state kids. Besides Greek life, is there a big difference between the two in the classroom or other activities?? I am not even opposed to "bottom" NR.....I have an issue with the fact that I will likely be cut bc my family is from a different part of the country. Other schools I've looked into don't have the same issues. Thoughts???
