University of South Dakota
The University of South Dakota, founded in 1862, is the state's oldest university and its only public university offering law and medical degrees, giving USD a central role in training South Dakota's legal and medical professional workforce. The university's business school and its fine arts programs have built solid regional reputations, and USD's Vermillion campus, along the Missouri River, houses the National Music Museum, one of the most significant collections of historic musical instruments in the country. USD's status as the state's sole law school and medical school gives it distinctive institutional standing within South Dakota's public university system, complementary to South Dakota State University's larger, more comprehensive land-grant mission. The university's combination of its genuine historical seniority as South Dakota's oldest university and its exclusive law and medical school status has made USD central to the state's professional workforce pipeline.
VS
Black Hills State University
Black Hills State University, founded in 1883, has built solid education and business programs, and its location in Spearfish, South Dakota, in the heart of the scenic Black Hills region, gives the university's outdoor recreation and geology programs direct access to significant natural terrain. The university's proximity to Mount Rushmore, the Homestake Gold Mine, and other significant regional landmarks gives BHSU's tourism and hospitality management programs practical, locally relevant career preparation tied to the region's substantial tourism economy. Black Hills State's relatively small size and its scenic western South Dakota setting have made it a consistent choice for students in that part of the state seeking a public university education closer to home than the state's larger eastern institutions. The university's combination of its Black Hills regional setting and its tourism-industry-connected academic programs has made BHSU a distinctive regional public university within South Dakota's higher education system.
