CollapseTexas A & M University - Commerce
From Wikipedia, The Free EncyclopediaTexas A&M University–Commerce is a member of the Texas A&M University System located in Commerce, Texas, United States. It also has campuses in Dallas and Mesquite, Texas and conducts classes at the McKinney, Texas campus of Collin County Community College District as well as at Northeast Texas Community College near Mount Pleasant, Texas. The university also has a partnership with Navarro College.
History
The university began as East Texas Normal College in 1889 when founder William Leonidas Mayo opened the doors to a one-building campus in Cooper, TX. After the original campus was destroyed by fire in 1894, Mayo moved the college to its present location in Commerce.
The State of Texas purchased the campus from Mayo in 1917 (after receiving word that the State would purchase the campus, Mayo died of a heart attack while walking back to the campus) and changed the name to East Texas State Normal College. In 1923, the school was renamed East Texas State Teachers College. The graduate program was added in 1935.
In 1957 the state Legislature, recognizing that the purpose of the institution had broadened from teacher education, changed the name to East Texas State College. Following the inauguration of the first doctoral program in 1962, the name was changed to East Texas State University (ETSU). The name was chosen despite Commerce being located in the North Texas geographic region; there were already schools named North, South, and West Texas State, and the school was the easternmost of the four.
ETSU would open branch locations in Mesquite, Dallas, and Texarkana. In 1996, the institution entered the Texas A&M University System and became Texas A&M University-Commerce; the Texarkana branch separated from the Commerce campus and became Texas A&M University-Texarkana, a separately accredited institution.
Texas A&M University-Commerce is the second largest institution in the Texas A&M System; only the main campus at College Station has a higher enrollment.

Question: Which university in Texas would you choose?I am considering Texas A&M University, University of North Texas, University of Houston, Sam Houston State University, or Texas A&M University-Commerce.

Best AnswerDepends on what you are wanting to study. And also where you live and how far from home you are wanting to go. I graduated from East Tx State University which is now Texas A&M Commerce and of course am pretty partial to it. It's a great school if you are planning to go into teaching and also has a pretty decent ag program. A&M College Station is a great school too...in fact none of them are bad...just depends on your intended course of study which is the best fit for you. |
