<p>Why, you are welcome. </p>
<p>I find it interesting also, because in Tennessee we did not have a lottery until just a few short years ago. So, I figure that is why everything about the lottery scholarship is tracked and made public. </p>
<p>It does sadden me that the University of Memphis, as well as some other fourth tier schools in Tennessee, are kinda messed up as of right now.</p>
<p>One the one hand, I could very well wind up attending graduate school at one of these schools (I have the most open and realistic grad school wish list going, y'all) and so I worry about the low rankings some of these schools have. Then on the other hand, it just makes me sad and downright hate the stereotype some of these schools inadvertently wind up perpetuating. </p>
<p>I do not know what the answer is sometimes. But, I think some of this starts with the high schools.</p>
