You might consider Tulane University in New Orleans for the old and creepy factor.
I'd also put UT forward for engineering within the southwest.

Rice is much further north but good for wealthy alumni and math.

Brown is good for biochemistry and around Houston.

A&M ranks high for veterinary services and has a strong core/military component. People take prize horses and other animals there for specialized treatment.

For Corpus, I'd play up the the fact that the university is on an island and there's nothing else. It's a good barrier for forcing the PCs to handle things without a lot of outside help.
