OP, do you really have your heart set on Alabama? Because from what you've written, I think you'd LOVE the OTHER UofA (not the other Universities of A, like the U of Alabama, the U of Arkansas, and there's the U of Alaska, and I don't know... I'm tired).
I think you might be quite happy in any one of our 11 chapters (soon to be 12!). I realize this isn't the topic of your thread, but I'm just nudging, gently. Sometimes the path leads in an unexpected direction. And yours just might have saguaros in it. Besides, we don't have humidity.
ETA: there are GC members who've attended TCU and SMU and Arkansas, so perhaps you'll get some info from them.
