Being from the Ozark Mountains of southern Missouri, I will concur. Also, only the Mississippi Delta-area of Arkansas is flat. Western Arkansas is part of the Ozark Mountain Range with the Boston & Oauchita Mountains.
Now that I have concluded my geography lesson, I will join in the real discussion.
Although going to an SEC/Big 12/Big 10(really 14) school would be fun, I think I would prefer a smaller-ish school that has a very active Greek Life. Grand Valley in Michigan, Eastern Illinois, etc. They are still pretty big schools with pretty active Greek systems. Private schools with great Greek systems, I would pick Wabash College, Bucknell, or Lehigh.
