Every school I listed is a top school for my education. Texas is not only badass at sports, but someone tell me a better place to go for exploration geology (Colorado School of Mines maybe). Tennessee and Alabama have amazing Environmental Law programs. I just want a career best suited to preserve the environment, be it law, geology, environmental science or sustainability.
I am not choosing schools based on sports! That was a second thought in which good academic school I want to go to!
