SOU just came up in conversation with my coworker the other day. He is a physical therapist and clinical instructor at our local CC, and one of the brightest people I know, and he went to SOU for undergrad. I am not sure what his exact major was, but something in the sciences. He was very impressed with his classes; the instructors, the rigor, and the small size. I don’t know much else except that it has a decent instate reputation, and the area is lovely, with the school right in town and Lithia Park. I don’t know how the retention rate compares to other state schools, sorry. This most likely will be one of my son’s safety school,s and I would have no problem sending him there, even with his high stats. (Then I could visit him lots and go to the Shakespeare Festival).
