Is Vanderbilt U. too southern?

My son assumed that stereotype was true, and he really was not very interested in Vanderbilt, but in the end he applied anyway because of the possibility of merit money. When he finally went and visited, twice, he found that most of the stereotypes were unfounded. The only one he found to be true was that everyone was friendly and courteous in the “southern style”.

He decided to attend. He has since visited a third time, and liked it even more. I think the “southern school” stereotype is out of date.
