I
read the following comment about the school: “This school
attracts bright, attractive people from all over the world. If
you expect a bunch of complete socially inept nerds with
pocket protectors sitting around discussing all of the reasons they
aren't getting laid, and all that ridiculous school spirit hubbub,
you are in the wrong place. If you want to
get a full, well-rounded education, party and meet hot, intelligent
women in bikinis and party with them , you are
in the right place. The campus location alone blows any
other Texas school out of the water. Add in the
beauties of Texas, tubing down the San Marcos and Blanco
Rivers, a cool buzz, and you are just fine.”
I do agree with the truth of this comment,
but want to add a more serious, academic one; the
science education offered here is both a good value for
the tuition cost and the department overall is on the
rise. I believe San Marcos will become more popular in
the future as an alternative to UT, although it is
still relatively unknown outside Texas.
