fred13 Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 Hey everyone, After next year, I will be finished high school and am planning on attending university in the states (I am in Canada right now). I don't have the marks for Ivy league schools but still get straight A's. My first choice would be University of Texas at Austin because I love their programs and campus (and their baseball team ) but I was wonderwing what other good schools there are for communications and/or public relations. Any help would be nice, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spivey11 Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 Temple has a pretty good Communications department. Link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean O Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 For Communications, my alma mater of Northwestern is about as good as you can get. With all-a's it might be possible, but it's practically an ivy. Look into it, northwestern.edu, it's a tremendous school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UncleMo Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 Before you leave college, you should read CashFlow Quadrant. Eye opening book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Lucia Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 Well I guess my opinion is pretty biased lol, but Im going to go ahead and rep my University. University of Nebraska. You said you liked texas, and although we arent the national powerhouse that texas is in baseball YET, we are actually doing pretty decent as of the past 8 years or so. 3 outta the last 5 years we've made the CWS, which also takes place only about 50 minutes away from the campus in Lincoln. I've been lucky enough to go to every game of the CWS since I've been 7, all sports in general in Nebraska are highly followed and praised- LOTS OF DIE-HARD sports fans. Anyways, the classes are pretty good. The sports are one-of-a-kind. Deffinetly check it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brutushayesosu Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 I think Ohio U. is good for communications. I go to Ohio State. Its good for partying and setting things on fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seanzarelli Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 I've heard the University of Arizona is also pretty good for communications. I also have a friend that's headed to University of North Carolina for that department, so they might have a good one too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dassub Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 How about York or U of T while you're here? U of T is really good, York ( I go there ) pretty much sucks though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Veesmack Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 My first choice would be University of Texas at Austin because I love their programs and campus (and their baseball team ) Do you mean you want to have a baseball team to root for or play for? That would be two completely different scenarios. You should consider going to CS-Fullerton as it is an excellent baseball program if you plan on playing but you'd probably want to go elsewhere for academics. You get the weather, the girls and you get the heritage (of saying your school has a bunch of championships and a rich baseball history). People in California love canadians for some strange reason, eh? You can't go wrong with UT at Austin either but I couldn't bear it whenver if gets hot hot hot. I dig the Texas food and women. But then again, Texas doesn't have what the so called "Mediterranean" weather like in California. If you do a little research on this rare kind of weather in the world, you'd want to stay here too. Then again, the Longhorns are the defending champs. Texas is great or good at just about every sport, too though Then again, the best thing to do is always seriously factor in what is truly important to you. Going to college is an important decision. I might offering an alternative view where you should probably look outside of baseball when picking your school. If baseball is that important to you, then it shouldn't be a problem. What if your school hits a draught after you enroll? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluenotebacker Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 I never went there (except to visit my girlfriend a few times, hehe) but I'm told The University of Missouri (Mizzou) has a great J-School. And hell, their baseball team is finally living up to expectations this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
