    Remember to consider where you want to live as well. You have some
    very rural places on your list. Are you in a city now? Would you miss
    it? 

    I gotta tell you, last time I was there, if the wind blew the wrong
    way, U of Iowa smells like a pig farm. I'm just sayin'. 

    For other schools, look at the head of the department's work. Take
    that into consideration as you choose. 

    I don't know enough about all the schools to comment. My only
    personal experience is one semester at U of Iowa, where I took my
    first metalsmithing class. My first project, the head of the
    department (not the teacher) happened by during our first critique
    and made time to MAKE FUN of my project. 

    My final project was a gold ring and I got an A in the class, thank
    you very much.
