I had heard about the STDs back in high school, too. I don’t know if it’s true, but even if it is, it shouldn’t be too relevant as long as condoms are properly used.

As for the quality of the school, it is what you make out of it. When I volunteered at Emory for the State Science Olympiad last semester, I met a PhD student who did his undergraduate work at Southern. I’m guessing he’s got to be one of the best students Southern has ever produced and thus atypical, but still…

In my opinion, if you can get your SAT score above 2100 with balanced subscores, your chances of getting a full ride ought to be substantial. I repeat that things may have changed since my high school days.
