TAMU is actually pretty difficult to get into and they give in-state kids preference. That's the reason for their numbers. Texas really needs about two more big-name school campuses that are in high demand. They should be more like California that way.


A&M is reacting to this demand by growing. Crazy arse plans to grow the Engineering school to 25,000. I don't love it, but as long as you keep your standards, add faculty to keep decent ratios, and continue to improve the infrastructure on campus then I think it'll work out and not just be a degree factory.

That crazy. I'm all for Arkansas growing some, as long as that growth comes with increased research, increased $ and real benefits to the local and state economy. Otherwise, I see no point in having 30,000 students in Fayetteville.
