Not really a surprise when a big state school like Florida does well in this tally. There are a lot of congressional seats from Florida, and the people who are mostly likely to occupy them are, by definition, those who didn't leave to go to college.

I was more surprised about Missouri than Florida.  I mean, I'd expect Penn State, Texas, Michigan, and Ohio State to be higher than Missou and Maryland on the basis of the number of congressional districts in the state, the prestige of the schools, and the relative lack of other major state schools (outside of Texas).
