Sul Ross State University is a public university located in Alpine, Texas, a small high-desert town in the Big Bend region of far West Texas. Alpine sits at roughly a mile of elevation in the Davis Mountains foothills, giving it cooler, drier weather than much of the state and dramatic, wide-open landscapes nearby — including Big Bend National Park and the Davis Mountains to the area's south and west. It's a remote, close-knit community known for its outdoor access, dark night skies, and the relaxed pace of a true small Texas town, and the university is a central part of local life there.
