Main reason SMU and Arkansas are my top-two schools I am looking into getting my MBA. Pops' new company is heavily tied into the fayettevile shale.

Because you're starting to get a shite ton of students from the DFW area, which is helping a lot in that department. Christ knows the inbred redneck natives aren't why Arkansas is "exploding."

Yeah, my cousin went to Prestonwood in FW and said a ton of kids are going to UA now. He said they pretty much cut out of state tuition if you pass a pretty easy criteria

Tied for 19th isn't "knocking on the door for top 10". It's barely top 20

Indeed. Arkansas is going to start charging out of state to kids from Texas, however. The way they see it, the rich DFW kids will still pay since out-of-state at AR is still cheaper than at half of the Texas schools. That way UA can pump the most out of the mediocre kids from Allen/Plano/Grapevine that come up here majoring in engineering, rush, discover SEC pussy and Dickson Street, and drop out.

Florida and Georgia chortle too.


Arkansas educating more students from Arkansas is a good thing.

You Aggies will one day realize the guy at your office who graduated from community college is just better than you because he works harder. It doesn't make a damn bit of difference where you went to school then.

Until you learn this first hand... Enjoy your house of cards coming down later in life.

You may want to check on the salaries for each school. I don't see many community colleges on this.

Do not speak of things you no little about. Arkansas schools from in-state student body is up 25% since the lottery was enacted.
