Badgers. True story, Wisconsin made them change the mascot depiction, too similar to wisky badger with turtle neck sweater.

I can tell you that it is Spring Hill, not Springhill, but that's about all I know

Just how expensive we talking here


It's at least $30k a year but very few people actually pay that. They've got a pretty solid endowment and scholarship program.

Think of it as Alabama's version of Centenary.

It's higher than that. And for 1,000 students its serviceable.

And it's way better than Centenary

According to their Wikipedia and this LINK - they are at $19 million.

Centenary has 500 undergraduates it hovers around $90 million even after losing their biggest donor.

Shreveport > Mobile

Sold their independent radio station to UA in 2011. Ix-nay on that admittedly-trivial point alone.

Don't do it way too small of a school. Once your boy fricks over one girl, the word will spread like wildfire.

He's most likely going to LSU but I was just curious if they offer money if the juice is worth the squeeze. He got a 30% scholly to Boston U but he doesn't want to pay (or us) med school prices for under grad.
