| Any experiences, impressions, etc. |
| When I went to college in Texas, SMU was considered a finishing school where girls went to get their MRS. |
| I worked at UT for a while, and I don't think that's how it's considered anymore. It's not seen at the same level as UT Austin, A&M, or Rice, but it's a solid school. |
| It's full of rich, mean girls according to a friend whose daughter goes there. |
| 20 years ago I took a language class at a community college. The Prof was an adjunct at SMU too. She said the community college students abilities were very similar to the SMU students. |
| Great for connections if the student might stay in Dallas. Conservative. |
| Asking people on DCUM for their opinion on a southern, church-affiliated school isn't going to help you much. |
+1 especially a school that is favored by the well-to-do (envy is big on DCUM) and THE school that hosts the GWB Presidential Library. |
| It is a school for well-heeled southerners. I have heard it called NCS south. |
