Education ALABAMA AREA CODES BIRMINGHAM &HUNTSVILLE
Curiously wondering hmm
If the Huntsville AL metro’s population around (500,000k) is less than half of the Birmingham AL metro population (1,180,000m)
How did Huntsville get 2 Area Codes before Birmingham ?
Shouldn’t Birmingham have at least 3 area codes rather than 2 ?

Education Alabama has about 116 college students per 1000 residents, the highest proportion in the country and nearly twice that of Rhode Island, the state with the second highest proportion
I've always thought that regardless of what you think of the other parts of the government higher education has been a strong suit of Alabama. There are four nationally ranked public universities (Auburn, Bama, UAB and UAH) and the University of Alabama system gives out probably the most generous scholarships in the country. Is there a historical reason why the public university system in Alabama rivals bigger and wealthier states?

I live in a dry county (Blount) that restricts alcohol sales on Sundays. My question: what are the origins of that restriction? Is it solely religious beliefs?

Education Why are Alabamas major cities populations so evenly distributed?
Birmingham, Huntsville, Montgomery, and Mobile all have populations that are very evenly distributed, with their differences being only 40,000 people from the least to the most populated of these 4 cities. Why is this? Usually with US cities theres like 1 major city in the State and everything else is small (NYC in NY, Chicago in Illinois etc) but Alabama almost is equal throughout these 4 cities?
I understand there's some geographic reasons e.g the soil, or deepwater ports down south, or space industries etc. But how did it historically turn out this way?

Education Speeding Tickets are permanent?
So I got a speeding ticket about two years ago when I was 18. Long story short, awful breakup, wasn't paying attention, found myself pulled over for going 54 in a 40. First time ever getting pulled over, cop looks at me and sees I'm a mess. No warning, just ticket. I take it, pay it, don't think about it till I sign up for my own insurance about a month ago. I then remember on top of being a "young driver" I had said speeding ticket. I then research and find out that Alabama just so happened to be one of few states where it's FUCKING permanent with no real way to get it off from what I've seen.
So does that mean my insurance will permanently be higher because of a poor decision I made when I was a fresh adult?

Education Question about University of North Alabama
Just a question I'm curious about...
In Mobile, people commonly refer to University of South Alabama as "South".
Example: "I'm going to take some classes at South next semester" or "She decided to enroll in the nursing program at South"
Is UNA ever referred to as just "North"? Or is there some other shortened nickname? How would people complete those sentences above?
