I did always think it was weird that the snooty Starbucks baristas had bachelors degrees (albeit English, History, or Gen Studies). Now I know why: we are an over-educated people here in Ann Arbor (I do love that about it!) . According to a study in Bizjournals.com, Ann Arbor has the highest percetage of bachelor degrees (69.2%) amoung 233 small communities. Cambridge, Berkeley, and Boulder also made the top Ten. Only 13% in our small town didn't go beyond high school. Go Tree Town!

When I saw this story the other day, I almost posted about it and said that I'd be $100 that it would turn out to be a bunch of nonsense.
