Graduate Schools

I need to find a graduate school with the following criteria:
-Great Art History and Latin American program
-Terminal MA program
-Great/good location

Here are the schools I have lined up:
-NYU
-Tulane
-The Art Institute of Chicago
-UT Austin
-Williams College (if I could possibly get over the fact that it is in Williamstown)

We will see...

Staller is making me think

Potential Thesis Topics:

-Rufino Tamayo and the Smith College Mural "Nature and the Artist: The Work of Art and Observer"
-Siqueiros, Orozco and Tamayo: Muralism at American Colleges from 1930-1943
-Oswaldo Goeldi's Woodcuts and Urbanism
-
Joaquín Torres García and Pre-Columbian Modernism
-Victor Brecheret
-Francisco Toledo

Knowing me, my topic will probably have nothing to do with any of these.
