SMU is more like the BC of the South but with fewer Catholics.
In all seriousness, SMU has really done a great job of improving itself. In the 1980s, it had a 90% acceptance rate that was more or less based on the ability to pay. The overall quality of the student body has really improved.
It's been interesting to see TCU grow into what SMU used to be (a snobby school full of rich kids that aren't overly gifted academically).
