Michigan State Recruitment?

Yes...the UP definitely has a different feel!

I would imagine that MSU is having problems because their enrollment has been down compared to previous years - the economy is definitely one reason. Cheaper state schools (CMU, GVSU, MTU) have been seeing huge INCREASES in the amount of girls they are taking...well, AST has, and I think it's fair to say that's probably relatively even across the board as rarely does one sorority do significantly better than every single other one.

MSU is very expensive for the education, considering that other state schools are a quarter of the price but are ranked the same or better.

As a Penn Stater, we were told that we are not a "State" university but, a "State Affiliated" university. I'm wondering if Michigan State works the same way. If it does-that would explain why it seems so expensive to attend.

I had not heard that enrollment was down that much, but it makes sense.

That was one of the first things I thought of. I can't remember what the live-in numbers are for the other houses, but most of the chapters left at MSU have large houses. Quota at 23 will definitely make the finances tight.

Thanks for the info!
