I grew up in and still own a house that is about two miles from Xavier University. Xavier is known for its Pharmacy school. In the south Xavier has clout. Graduating from their Pharmacy school almost guarantees a job. We have another University named Dillard. Dillard is known for its nursing school. Graduating from Dillard’s nursing school almost guarantees a job in the south. All the rankings do not even matter. Many graduates from these schools are very successful and contribute to whatever communities they live/work in.
