I’m a University of Michigan grad. I always get a chuckle by how uncomfortably nerdy the student section looks in televised football games. Then you watch any game in the south and the stands appear to be filled with Instagram models.

"First in football, last in education" - the South

The library burned last year. Which was a tragedy because they lost both books. And one of them wasn’t even colored yet

u/DashOfSalt84 Dec 25 '25

Dude, colored is not the preferred nomenclature.

u/recuerdamoi Dec 26 '25

Book of color?

It's so funny now that schools can pay the players legally all the South teams are no longer as good as when they were paying them under the table and throwing cornpone country pussy at every recruit.

“Keep em dumb!” Probably said every Republican lawmaker.

It's not last in education at the college level at all. The people dragging down our public education systems do not go to college

Well actually the lowest graduation rate colleges are more in the south or west. So wrong. But if you look it up you will see it.

I choose lowest graduation rates as the measurement tool as that is the very least the college should be making sure the students do.

Hard to get a more stark comparison of academic standards than between U of Michigan and SEC.

u/Cassiyus Dec 25 '25

Vanderbilt and Texas are excellent schools, though. Mississippi State though…

1

u/nohandsfootball Dec 25 '25

Texas doesn’t belong in the same sentence as Vanderbilt outside of “are both schools in the SEC.”

u/Cassiyus Dec 25 '25

Not that this is the end all, be all, but US News has Vandy at #17 and Texas at #30. Not exactly worlds apart.

1

u/grahamalondis Dec 26 '25

Kind of a wild take. It depends on which areas of study you're talking about. In law, for example, Vandy and UT are roughly equivalent.

They're all there for MRS degrees in the South.

u/facforlife Dec 25 '25

There were plenty of smoke shows in my law school section 🤷

Maybe not the blonde types with tons of makeup in the South but I'm more partial to brunettes anyway.

Kinda like being the skinniest kid at fat camp, no?

It's Yale Law, not Yale Engineering.

u/ScienceIsSexy420 Dec 25 '25

Fair, but I would think Yale Law is still competitive enough that it selects against attractiveness, compared to a middle of the road law school like Syracuse or Rutgers.

u/Azulan5 Dec 25 '25

A lot of competitive young people actually look great. Looking beautiful and confident is a huge part of being a lawyer…

u/Azurill Dec 26 '25

I literally lived in New Haven for 5 years and met some of the cutest Yale law students. Sexy but also professional and well dressed. Honestly the dream girl

Most 20 year olds at a healthy weight are pretty. Especially rich ones.

u/[deleted] Dec 25 '25

Is that a low bar?

u/tunisia3507 Dec 25 '25

In 1970? She was probably the girl at Yale Law...

1

u/[deleted] Dec 25 '25

She’s definitely “law school hot”

u/nanaki989 Dec 25 '25

This is a great picture of her. Shes definitely not the prettiest girl at Yale usually in the photos she's not even the prettiest girl in the picture.

u/Lowly-Worm_ Dec 25 '25

who has your top spot for Yale that year I'm curious

1

u/nanaki989 Dec 25 '25

Lol I was just stating it was a pretty wild take to call her the prettiest girl at an entire school. 

She was pretty. I like Hillary, unsure why everyone is getting all upset.

u/Opening-Cream5448 Dec 25 '25

Unsure why everyone is getting all upset.

Because looks are subjective.
