Actually, beedubaya, I'd say that Terre Haute is pretty similar to some small Southern towns I've visited. I'm originally from the South, so I've got a pretty good impression of how small, farming-based communities work. I go to school in Terre Haute, and it is quite similar to these towns. I've noticed that it's a very blue-collar type of place with emphasis on family, farming, and church.
I'm not really qualified to comment on ISU. My impression is that it's a step above community college or "Grade 13" schools, but I don't really know.
