approximately in order of acedemic difficulty:

plymouth state u (waterville/loon with in 30 min)

u of utah(park city 40 min and tons of others all under 1 hr)

U of colorado at bolder(2-4 hours to copper breck and others)

U of Vermont(stowe jay sugarbush smuggs mad river all under 1 hr and 1/2, nh and south vt 2-3 hrs)

Bates (hour to sunday river)

dartmouth(under an hour to killington and okemo)

sorry if I am slightly off on driving times, the only ones I know for sure are UVM, but this is what I can rememeber from when I was looking for a school
 
Western State, Co (30 minutes)Crested Butte/Monarch

Fort Lewis, Co (20 min)Durango/silverton

Adams State, Co (1 hr.) wolf creek
 
Try Ski Bum U, they have a great Lift Operations Program. They give Higher Education a whole new meaning, plus they have campuses all over the country at just about every ski area. But you will need to score high on the THC.
 
uvm, cu boulder, colorado mountain college, sierra university (i cant really remember the name of that one but it is right in tahoe), university of utah, denver university, redlands or pamona if you want to just jib at bear peak
 
I would go with UNR(reno) Sierra Nevada College(tahoe) U of U(utah) or westminster(utah)
 
Gogebic Community College

Ski Area Managment

Ironwood, MI

They get as much as if not more then alot of resorts out west. average around 250 inchs a year. Not very good skiing but there is alot of snow. Plus the Lake Superior is soppesed to be warm this winter that means tons of Lake effect.

or try CMC....
 
I am just getting back from Iraq and out of the army. So I am going to school for geography and want a easy school with lots of skiing. preferably west coast/rockies
 
plymouth state is dope cuz loon, waterville valley and tenney are under 30 minutes.. plus your only an hour or two from anywhere in vermont
 
for geography.....Then go to UNR or U of U. Close to big mountains (under and hour drive) both have good academic programs.
 
yeah i would say that PC is about 40 minutes from Utah, snowbird alta brighton are all about 40 min + or - depending on if its snowing or not. it is 22 miles from the dorms to the birds lot.
 
In terms of best education, best skiing!! I would definatly have to say U of Colorado, its where i am now and im having the best time of my life. Good School, Great Partying, and last year i got over 50 days. This year i plan on getting many more. its only about 1 and a half max to some of the best resorts in the country.
 
Green Mountain College its about 40 from killy and Okemo and 50 from stratton

it has a resort management program where the campus is located at the base of killington
