what private schools have hot girls


TCU is arguably the best-looking female student body per person. I am not including USC, and the Arizona schools cause according the TFM-girls instagram; they are in a league of their own.

All they do is pull dumb rich girls from Episcopal, Lamer, Highland Park, westlake, Kinkaid and ect.

And that's wonderful that y'all are a place that people tour at, but you're missing my point. Go to new Orleans or Austin and you can see local bars hosting local musicians playing all kinds of music. Nashville every bar has the same cover band playing shite.

Nashville is simply a much better city than New Orleans.


To raise a family or be a young professional? Probably.

Nashville gets boring after about 6 days though. From a fun standpoint, NOLA kicks its arse.

Vandy is still the better school though.

Sorry I thought we were comparing scenes. Nashville obviously has a great one. But I do think in terms of genre offerings it's not as diverse as some people may like. Still a ton to offer though. My answer was vandy.

For a city that prides itself on music, there sure isn't much quality or diversity in live music on the strip or around Vandy, just a bunch of bro country figs doing bon Jovi covers in cowboy hats.


That's like judging New Orleans by the French Quarter, to be fair.

Locals don't go to the "strip" downtown. The honky tonks are tourists traps and the bars around Vandy are just college bars.

There are tons of cool spots for good live music here. I like New Orlean's way more though.

Nashville is kind of like austin i'd imagine. 18-20 would suck but 21 and up would be great.

NOLA is a great place for the underage drinkers of the world

Yeah dude, I went to campus and went around to as many "dive bars" as we could find on both sides of the river. Like i said, I wanted to like it. Couldn't find anything that was appealing or interesting to me. Hey if you like it then awesome, just wasn't for me.

And for the record I spent about ninety minutes on Broadway, that place is miserable.

Nashville is a solid town. NOLA is in another stratosphere in terms of food/drink/party, but there is more to life than that.

Jobs/outdoor activities jump to mind.


ETA: I much prefer NOLA, but easily understand why someone else would prefer the Nashvilles/Austins of the world.

you can find kickass house parties in any city. A house party isn't really a location based thing

UT students,for the most part, live in apartments since rent is so insane there.
