SMU is such a perfect school, come visit- if nothing else you should come see the campus!!

SMU has been rising in national ranking and respect over the last few years. however, as it is becoming a much more rigorously academic institution, the school has been too strict with students on many levels. this is a good school and is tons of fun-now. slowly but surely greek houses are being removed, students are being charged with fines and violations in ludicrous amounts, the SMU pd are everywhere and any form of partying is moving completely away form campus. this is an overall amazing and well-rounded school currently, but everyone can tell that the administration abhors the classic, fun college experience; soon this campus will be void of it all together. but for the time being, us who love and desire the classic college experience that does involve minor rule breaking, will not be stopped.

SMU is great. Really it is. Its a beautiful place I am proud to be a part of.

For a good life and great experience come to SMU.

i dunno, im transferring next year so it obviously didn't work for me and several of my friends feel the same way, but some of my other friends really like it here so it's really up to your own preferences.

SMU could do better in making it's students feel special. It seems as if everything they do is to please the alumni or whomever is giving them money; but then again, money does make the world go around.

It's difficult to tell what the policy on drinking will be in the coming years and police participation. They've done a few stupid things in an attempt to curb alcohol abuse recently, but most recently, a committee recommended a more accommodating campus. The cops can be dicks who care more about getting underage kids in trouble than protecting them, so avoid at all cost while breaking the law, but it really isn't so bad.
