TCU compared to UNT (University of North Texas)?

I cannot speak for UNT but TCU has a very active Film Television and Digital Media program. The campus is very greek but there is definitely places for non-greeks like myself. Since the football and baseball team have been ranked very highly, school spirit on campus is amazing. In fact, the whole city of fort worth has practically turned purple. It's a great place to be right now. The on-campus housing is pretty nice compared to state school campuses. Also, the cafeteria is the best one i've seen in a university. The gossip I've heard about UNT is that it used to be great but isn't anymore. That it is only good for music students. And I've heard it nicknamed "High School College". That's all gossip. But I am proud to be a horned frog!
