May 23, 200520 yr Never been to College Station but I have been to Athens, GA several times when I was living in GA. Dude, beautiful place. Athens is known as a music hotspot and you'll be surrounded by Georgia peaches (that's what they call the women, sweet as peaches). TX women are hot, but they haven't got s*** on GA women. Atlanta is only 45mins to an hour from Athens, not to mention you're within just a few hours of the Atlantic coast and less than 8 from the Gulf of Mexico. The weather isn't near as brutal as TX in the summer but just a bit cooler in the winter. So, educational value aside, IMO UGA is the school you should be checking out.

A&M is in a more temperate band so summer wouldn't be as bad as say down by me or out west. GA has a lot going for it also. I don't think you could go wrong in either place.

I was in Athens, GA last September. UGA campus is great. I met few professor in the Ag Econ department, great Faculty. The town has good bars and nightlife. I stayed there for a week, not too much time to know the town, but it is a small, comfortable, and attractive town.
