Bryan Dennehy Stadium > Kyle's Mom's Field.

I’ve never been to Norman, but College Station is ugly.

Who’s cherry picking? I’m just showing the trees.
Now go move the heard of hobos off your campus.

Disgusting campus. How can you be brutalist and gaudy at the same time?

You posted a picture of a newer apartment complex. Congratulations. Hardly indicative of all residential areas in the college station area.
A note on the trees. We generally are dominated by post oaks in this city. They just don’t grow very tall. I’m so happy for you to support a team in a geographical area comprised of different species of trees than are native to the area. Weird flex, but ok.
There are nice neighborhoods of heavily wooded expensive houses here. There are older neighborhoods that are well kept as well. There are new developments all over with apartments marketed toward student living. And yes there are run down areas. Kind of like in any city. Keep the quality posts coming, GArY

Even the cherry picked images of College Station look shitty
I don’t even need to look it up because I’ve been around Austin plenty, but simply driving down I35 downtown Austin will kill any argument you may have in favor of your own campus. Are there nice areas in Austin? Sure. I’ve got a lot of family and friends there who live in great neighborhoods. Far from campus. Downtown Austin is a shite hole. Most of that metropolitan area can produce pictures that look like a 3rd world country

City of College Station was established in 1938, so it is pretty hard to have old neighborhoods. However the City of Bryan (next door) dates back to the 1860's.
The origins of College Station date from 1860, when the Houston and Texas Central Railway began to build through the region. Eleven years later, the site was chosen as the location for the proposed Agricultural and Mechanical College of Texas, a land-grant school. In 1876, as the nation celebrated its centennial, the school (renamed Texas A&M University in 1963) opened its doors as the first public institution of higher education in the state of Texas.
Bryan is named after Moses Bryan, nephew of the Father of Texas, Stephen F Austin.

A&Ms campus looks like a former Soviet Bloc city

I don’t know about trees, but that giant Jostens ring is pretty sweet.

Fayetteville's got plenty of those too

Nice photos!
Arkansas is a pretty state, and the campus looks nice too.
