re: SEC Schools : Enrollment % by State (per University enrollment reports)

TAMU-Corpus Christi is its own university and is funded through the "system." It is not part of the Sea Grant program. TAMU-CC conducts important research, but it isn't at the same level and doesn't share the Sea Grant mission as TAMU at Galveston

A lot of people don't grasp that A&M Galveston is an extension of the College Station campus, in Galveston. Sort of like how Guantanamo Bay Naval Base is the United States, in Cuba. A&M Galveston is the same university as A&M College Station. It just offers ocean-related degree programs and conducts ocean-related research that cannot be done out of College Station. Same thing with Texas A&M Qatar and The Health Science Center.

A&M Corpus Christi is a separate university funded and governed by the A&M System. We share a board of regents, a chancellor, and a system executive committee, but it is a separate university with its own president. It is not an extension of the College Station campus like Galveston, Qatar, and the Health Science Center locations are.
