So out of a roughly 52,000 student enrollment, at a 68% rate makes 35,360 graduates at OSU alone, to say nothing of the other local institutions, including Columbus State Community College, which has 23,000 students enrolled.

I still say, something ain't right with that study....
But maybe another factor is whether they STAY in Columbus. Maybe the other cities are enjoying the fruits of Columbus. In addition they only list 19 cities, so maybe if they had gone further Columbus my might be still in the top 25.

I know here in the TC, folx tend to stay after graduating because of the jobs that are available to them. Plus we have more than the U of M. We have several well respected smaller colleges and universities throught the state of MN. Those graduates usually settle in the Cities.
