** UH, Texas Tech, UNT were "Best in Southwest" Schools but not on any specific rankings or lists.

And, just to put in a little plug for my alma mater, UTA was listed as a "Best in the West."

However, I really don't get what Princeton Review is doing. For instance, why is there a "Best in the West" and a "Best in the Southwest." Oh, well, I don't have the time or inclinaton to look into such things.

Are you sure that wasn't "Best in Arlington, South of Collins"?

[Go_UTA]

Actually, that would be west of Collins.

[jtstang]

Damn, I was afraid of that.
