No smiley face accompanied this statement, so I thought I would
clarify. There are only three Catholic institutions of higher
learning in Texas: the Univ. of Dallas, St. Edward's Univ. in Austin
and the Univ. of St. Thomas in Houston. There is no Cath. Univ. of
North Texas. It belongs to the same fictitious category as the Sam
Houston Institute of Technology.
