Right, Rhodes is a "College" with no graduate programs. Washington & Vandy are Universities with graduate programs. Although, I'm pretty sure Vandy has the highest rated graduate programs in the state -a degree from Rhodes with a masters or phd from the University of Memphis is a potent combination in todays job market.

Yeah, Christian Brothers University has great MBA programs. I wasn't aware that Rhodes has a MBA of Accounting, interesting.

I am a graduate of two Memphis-area colleges. I have a bachelor's degree from Lambuth University in Jackson TN and a master's degree from The University of Memphis. Apparently, that combo is pretty good. I'm currently fully funded in a Ph.D. program at Peabody College at Vanderbilt University. Peabody is generally recognized as the #1 college of education in the US.
