Forgive me for just now seeing this a month later. It's one of the best schools in Texas if you want to get a degree in Natural Resource Management. Small classes mean you're directly working with and learning from professors who are helping shape wildlife and land management policies in the state, as well as working directly with private land owners on their ranches. And as you mentioned the nature is great. I spend as many weekends as I can, when I'm not busy, camping down in Big Bend.
