UALR was a good school for me because it is in my hometown, which is easier to live in than most Arkansas cities, and was pretty professional about gaining you the qualifications to get a teacher's license. It's well known in the state, and has good facilities. It did cost a fair amount, though, for a state school, and suffered from not having a live-in community, although new dorms have been built, now.
Harvard University, the first college in America, was originally called "New College" and sometimes just referred to as "Cambridge," the city in MA where it's located.
