schools
They’re all massive state run institutions though
- red-iron-pine 4y ago"state school" doesn't have anything to do with the name having the word "state" in it. it means the school is funded by the individual states; it's not private. U of Texas is absolutely and unquestionable a state school -- it is funded and run by the state of Texas. People absolutely would refer to it in the category of "state schools" -- it's not a private institution compared to something like Rice or Baylor.
- dieselgate 4y agoWe’re both right and I mentioned they’re obviously state run institutions. if someone in Michigan says “I go to state” someone isn’t gonna reply “oh University of Michigan or michigan state?” Edit: in California the csu (California state university) system is considered the state university system and is different organizationally than the UC (university of California) system. Though they’re both public state run institutions.
