<p>both schools have good sports management. which school is better overall ex: town, student life, campus, academics?</p>
<p>Ohio U...................</p>
<p>PS--I have been to both in the last few years. OU is scenic with a cool town and nice campus. BG has an ugly campus in a rundown boring town. OU has a much better academic rep too.</p>
<p>barrons - I beg to differ. My son & I went to visit & tour Bowling Green several times. The campus wasn't run down at all, and the little town was really quite quaint. Toledo is also quite close. While I don't know much about OU I'm sure it is quite similar.</p>
<p>lol, mominsearch, Toledo being nearby is nothing for Bowling Green to brag about..</p>
<p>The OU campus is FAR more attractive than BGSU. The town of Athens is much cooler and attractive than the city of Bowling Green. Trust me.</p>
<p>OU is a far nicer campus.</p>
<p>I feel as I can speak, I've visited both and my older sister is a sophomore there and my mom is an alumnus. I think BGSU is much more gorgeous, though it's strange to have a cemetary at a campus. Academically, I'd choose OU for everything except art or education, which BGSU is much better at. BG is a much smaller town than Athens, butt none of them are big towns at all. BGSU actually has a nice "city sqaure" with lots of places to shop and eat. I don't think entertainment will be a problem at either school. Sure OU has more prestige, but I myself would choose BGSU over it.</p>
<p>Ditto to what barrons said, I would also pick OU over BG. The town of Athens is a really cool place.</p>
