As far as the UT-Austin and Oxford comparison, you obviously do not know much about either because they are more similar that you realize.

Wow. In what ways is Ole Miss more like Texas? Academics? No. While I don't put stock in the USNews rankings, State was ranked ahead of Ole Miss in the most recent rankings. Size of school or city? No. Student credentials? No. Endowment? No.

The med school is in Jackson and is for all intents and purposes a separate campus with a separate culture. The vet school is in all likelihood harder to get into than the med school. I haven't checked recently, though.

Let's drop the pretense and snobbery. From someone who didn't go to either, but who works and socializes with alums of both schools, there isn't much difference at all. The purported differences are pretty shallow and insignificant.
