Thoughts? Seems like a good move, but will it pull students from the Starkville campus? Or simply add more students by virtue of location?

I love the push onto the Coast, no matter what.

I think it will add students who would have gone to South Alabama for engineering (in-state tuition extended to the MS Coast counties). It's a really smart move by MSU to push to the Coast.

Great move to get a presence on the Coast. I doubt it will bring many students to Starkville, but will add students in Gautier.

In no way shape or form will it keep perspective students from enrolling in Starkville ("I think I'll just stay here and live at home because I like that better."), but it will add untraditional students and people who would otherwise go somewhere else or nowhere at all.

Extremely smart of MSU. Very proud.
