First off...... chill out.
MSU is a better overall experience, and you should know that that is merely a matter of opinion. Do you know how many co-workers and groups of friends debate this and will debate this forever? Everyone knows that Mich is definitely more difficult to get accepted to... But you say "weekend trip" for MSU--- I say a GREAT AND AWESOME experience that you will never forget being a Spartan. Being a Wolverine can't even come close to having that feeling in any way expect being able to say you went to an academically exceptional university and are more than likely a lame ass nikka....
I'm completely chill. I was actually reading your post and laughing at how emotional you got. I'm the one guy who has been in your corner more than most on here. You might want to double-check next time instead of releasing all your anger at the wrong person for whatever you're feeling. So let me speak slowly because obviously what I said flew by your head. Number one, Ann Arbor is widely regarded nation-wide and worldwide as a better college town than Lansing. So you're relying on opinion, but I am relying on general consensus. We can find any two people who disagree on anything in the world, but you said something as a matter of fact that is contrary to conventional belief and then got checked for it. Your "lame nikka" comment is hilarious. You sound pretty lame right now for the first time I've ever seen you look that way.
So what that I dapped
@J-Fire 's post? I agree with both viewpoints... but of course I lean towards the viewpoint that you can obtain any amount of success in life regardless of university or education. Also, lol, I guess you're trying to diss me by saying that I haven't done shyt, but actually I haven't been to work in like 2 years but make more than the average 'Wolverine' who would have graduated my same year. I also joined the military and went to grad school at the same time... traveled the world,, fukked bytches in like 9 nations, etc. my fam feels the way they feel -due to being brainwashed by the same archaic and retarded ideas that you seem to have - Prestige, 'Name', and institution. People like them and you don't place 100% of success on pure happiness. You are working on law degrees trying to work for some wack ass firm (more than likely) ---- While I really just run businesses n shyt and go to kungfu, fukk hoes and chill. and hang w my girl n kids.
This isn't about your life, and that's no offense. But it's irrelevant to the discussion. I have no idea why you felt the need to defend it. If you took my "you're probably not doing anything" comment to heart then obviously your family has you feeling some type of way. But I am not your family. My comment means what it means. If you have degree and your family feels like you're nor doing shyt, then there may be truth to that. I never said that you were. The point was to combat your "college is widely subjective" statements that are just false. I can objectively tell you what school's graduate's have better employment rates and higher starting salaries and are more liked by graduate schools. You spent all these words telling me your life story and none of it telling me how I was wrong about what J Fire said. Your psalms about life don't equal jobs. Anyone can do anything, but all risks are not equal. If you can go to U of M at a comparable price to MSU and you have no immediate ties to any sort of network, you made an unwise decision. If MSU is considerably cheaper, then your decision makes sense. This is research, not opinion. Third, you got the nerve to try to place me an elitist which is pitiful because you know better.
Of course because you didn't go to msu or the ohio state (of course u know that i went there as well) but Did attend u of M- I know that you have ZERO reading comprehension. I didn't say that U of M didn't give the average black person a chance. I'm the average black person.. me n my bro and bm all got accepted 'my guy'. I said the average black person more than likely would be at MSU - which is true. The types that I would Prefer to be around more than likely would be at MSU - especially at how young I went to school. And you're right about the affluent backgrounds.... The life perspective of some of the people I knew that chose U of M is basically gross as fukk and misguided. Are you from Detroit?, if you are then you know that there are still those types of people here as well.
You're backtracking lol. But you straight up said. "At least MSU gave average black folk a chance." Then you tried to point out where people came from to make your point. If anything, most black at U of M stick together and are very "average." Those who are like you described don't really hang around with black people to that extent aside from black people like them. Just say that you personally wanted to be around people like YOU at that age instead of ridiculously claiming that U of M doesn't give average black people a chance or lacks those people. The thing is, I know about the "perception" and if you read I was clearly saying that the lack of affordability of U of M has led to a sparse black population and black students feeling limited and uncomfortable. But you're not helping people by posting based on stereotypes and anecdotal evidence.
In a world where a black persons career prospects are exponentially increased based on going to high quality universities, I was not about to sit here and let you sell falsehoods and the mirage of "eh you b...just start your own business and fukk whatever undergrad you go to.....don't worry about the fact that most business fail and that U of M puts you in a better position to even acquire those kills and network like that...nah fukk that....it's all the same....just hustle." I respond to over-generalizations. But I don't know why you responded with anger. I think you'll read over my post and recognize that you took it the wrong way.
