Is the Univ. of Utah a "commuter school"?
This was previously posted in another thread, but it really does deserve more prominence, since the subject comes up often, and there are always a few Utes who do not believe the truth.
When we can settle a matter of longstanding dispute in such definitive fashion, we are required to share. And thus I do. Quote:

lol, why does this deserve a separate thread? (With a sticky no less!) It was adequately addressed here.

Utah Valley University has grown quite remarkably over the last several years.
And somehow the University of Utah still can't get a higher caliber of student? It's not like Utah residents don't have other public colleges and universities to choose from. This is for a state that has less population than Dallas-Fort Worth metro area. The reason that they are not more selective is that they can't afford to be. If they want to maintain their current size. College of Eastern Utah (unknown) Dixie State College of Utah 6443 Salt Lake Community College 24,500 Snow College 3,000 Southern Utah University 6,490 University of Utah 21,526 Utah State University 21,680 Utah Valley University 26,696 Weber State University 23,335 |

The latest U.S. News rankings have Utah at #126 nationwide. BYU is over fifty notches higher, at #71.

Not worth having as a sticky anymore now that the Ute forum has been deleted. But worth a final bump.

Not sure what this has to do with football.
I know Miami (FL) is considered a commuter school. Why that would impact football reputation or prominence is beyond me. For the record, I say the U is a commuter school. Just take a look at who is riding trax. My HS friends who went to the U didn't go live in the dorms, they stayed at their parents house. |
