I wonder if those guys talking shit got accepted by UT. Sure sounds like theyre the ones in Ivy League schools. UT is actually a Public Ivy. Its impossible for UT to be an ivy league university being that the ivy league is in a specific demographic location. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_Ivy

What do aggies and longhorns have in common? They both applied to UT.

I would talk about Tech but theyre tier 3 and were on the brink of losing the title of "university" this year so I'll leave them out for their own good- "Get your grades up"

The original eight Public Ivies list by Moll:

* College of William & Mary (Williamsburg, Virginia)
* Miami University (Oxford, Ohio)
* University of California
* University of Michigan (Ann Arbor)
* University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
* University of Texas at Austin
* University of Vermont (Burlington)
* University of Virginia (Charlottesville)

University of Texas: A large state flagship university located in Austin, Texas. Enrollment = ~50,000. Metro population 2011 = ~ 1.6 million.

1. A once great school that has become a corporation. An institution that has left its roots and mission to pursue the almighty dollar to the detriment of the people of Texas.

2. A school rightly loved by its alums and adored by millions of Tshirt fans than can't read past the sixth grade. Note: Things about UT that are thoughtful that will usually by an alum. The junk by a tshirter.

3. A school that high performing TEXAS kids from upper middle income suburban homes can rarely hope to get into. The dorks in this socio economic group are going to Texas A&M, the partyers are going to Texas State and the independent "I'll do my own thing' types are going to Tech.

4. Most alums of UT that graduated in the 70's, 80's and early 90's from upper middle class suburban Texas would not be allowed in today. UT would have to give grant and funds to the very demographic its left wing leadership despise.

5. Has the UT leadership even thought of what is going to happen when many future alums are from Bangalore, India or Beijing China. Are they going to attend UT games, donate money to the school , go to a UT game today. UT's 100,000 fans make less noise than aTm's 80,000 and less than Tech' 60,000. You know why. UT fans are old and stale.
Plano: What do you mean I cant get a grant for going to the University of Texas. WTF I got accepted to Rice but UT is not offering a dime. So, I live in Plano and my mom and dad make 100,000 a year. Tech is offering a full ride and aTm is giving me two years but UT nothing.

Beijing, China. "Mother I have been accepted to the University of Texas". Yes, son it will be very expensive but we will have help paying for it. Will you bring me back a cowboy hat.

A large, public university located in the city of Austin.

Commonly referred to as UT.

The only thing larger than the size of this school may be their ego. UT students think they are the best school in the state, and greatly look down upon Texas A&M. Many UT kids believe that the A&M students are just UT rejects, but in reality the Aggies are the ones who got accepted into both schools and chose the one in which provides a great education, a humble and friendly group of students, and an overall more welcoming and safe environment. Plus, Maroon beats Burnt Orange any day of the week.
Me: I'm going to Texas A&M.
Longhorn: you must've been rejected from the University of Texas.
Me: Actually I was accepted into the University of Texas. It was my fallback school in case I didn't get into A&M. Now please, go change out of that burnt orange shirt before I stab a fork into my eye.

A school for people pathetic enough to rave and brag about their school's athletic programs on urban dictionary as if their university is a part of their identity. Seriously, get a life.
University of Texas students are a bunch of soulless red necks.

the largest university in Texas. Due to the 10% rule and relatively good academics, many high school seniors apply here as a safety school. It is probably the largest safety school in the South because they weren't able to get into a private, often Ivy League, school instead.
Student: Hey where are you going to school next year?
Future Texas student: Well, I didn't get into MIT or Yale, so i guess I'm headed to the University of Texas. At least they have a good football team...
