Dallas Baptist University is a run of the mill Christian school. Obviously affiliated with the Baptists. Sports are Division II, with the notable exception of baseball, which competes at the Division I level.
They don't have a program that is really notable or special. Elementary Education is well respected, but I doubt your son is interested in that. Its a solid choice and they give good scholarships. Its definitely worth a look for a mid-20s ACT type student that wants something different than a state school.
Its certainly not Baylor, SMU or TCU, but its not a bad place. Some students do very well in smaller campus environments. IIRC, DBU has about 5,000 or so students. No Greek life. No football. But Dallas isn't a bad place to spend 4 years.

Thanks anc. He's starting to see the light that he most likely will not be accepted to Michigan. Right now, he's looking at University of Illinois, College of Wooster, Wheaton College, Dallas Baptist and Davidson College. He's not quite sure what degree path he wants to go or really what size of school he wants to attend. I'm a little cold on Illinois, but I'm not pressuring him in anyway.
