I'm really surprised.

TAMLSTW will be an upward trender for sure... It will be interesting to see to what extent. TT in how many years? Doubt they will be peers with UHLC/SMU/Baylor any time soon.

“The synergy of this strategic partnership is extraordinary,” said Kenneth H. Jones, Jr., chairman of Texas Wesleyan’s Board of Trustees. “Texas A&M stands to benefit from an already established, ABA-accredited law school. Fort Worth and the metroplex would lay claim to an institution poised for first-tier status. And Texas Wesleyan would gain new academic programs that drive our vision of preparing motivated students for graduate school.”

Yeah perhaps.

The A&M name is strong. The TWU name is not, a shame they are leaving it on there. It must have been a part of the deal.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out over the next few years because A&M grads tend to be a tad fanatical when it comes to the whole Aggie network thing. If they could rename it Texas A&M Law School in Fort Worth or anything that drops the TW name, it could really make a move.

It can't possibly be any worse than it already is.

25 million upfront and 2 million for the next 40 years to lease the buildings. My guess is TWU will eventually be dropped from the name.
