So, what is the theory behind where they pick the locations for Med Schools?
Yakima?
Where in Colorado
Really, do they just take out some chicken entrails, spread them over a map of the continental united states and rub them around with a stick until some sign manifests?
Here in the "lovely" potato state of Idaho (ug!) we have 0 Med Schools, and are the only state in the Northwest w/o. Washington and Colorado already each have an allopathic school. And, Boise's population totally beats out that of Yakima. Come on people just listen to the name, "Yakima!" Do you really want to tell someone you went to school in Yakima? Or, would you prefer to tell them that you attended an institution in the metropolis-oh I'm using the word-of Boise? Just listen to the word, the way it smoothly slides off of the tongue with its smooth, voiceless, snake-like s.
Of course I should mention that my state isn't exactly any kind of cultural or intellectual mecca. As a matter of fact, Idaho came in 48th for lowest IQ scores-only Utah and Mississippi beat them for the bottom 2 rungs! I'm sorry if any Utahians or Mississipinites are offended
