The State of Texas - 878.2 miles - Collegiate edition


One of the main reasons for the trip was to check out universities in northern Texas. Here's some of the ones we visited (and the range of prices for the pennants)
Southern Methodist University (SMU) in Dallas ($11.98 before discount, because they co-op with Barnes & Noble)
University of Dallas ($12)
Texas Woman's University in Denton ($10.98)
University of North Texas in Denton ($13.99)
Baylor in Waco ($12)
Southwestern University in Georgetown ($8.95)
Isn't that weird about the price differences?! And no way does it correlate to tuition! (sigh)
Without intentionally trying to dis any alumna, these were Mom and Dad's favorites:
SMU, Southwestern, and tied for last place -- UDallas, TWU, UNT, Baylor (dead last)
Her favorites: SMU, UNT, UDallas, Southwestern, TWU, Baylor
Of course, scholarships and the highest bidder will definitely change perspective!
