It's also cheaper to go to a public university in the South than in-state in the North. If I remember correctly in state tuition at Michigan is $40k a year.

It’s not necessarily because northern kids are sick of the politics. Yes there is some of that, but most northern schools are receiving record numbers of applications so it makes sense that the northern students start “looking south”.
