Academic Set Back

In the distance, framed through the allée of live oaks on the median of SMU’s Bishop Bouevard, is the domed Dallas Hall. This architectural icon of SMU higher learning was set back from the entrance of SMU almost as an academic lure or academic destiny. Now it looks set back in the distance as an afterthought with the five-story indoor football practice field dominating one’s SMU field of vision. Instead of SMU setting back the indoor practice football field, they set back academics and what SMU stands for. *Academic Set Back
