The question you should be asking is whether or not the major you are going to pursue at OU is going to get you to the career of your dreams. In particular, does the school reside in an area where the career you are seeking flourishes? For example, if you want to major in oceanography, a land-locked state may not be the place to pursue such a degree.
We seem to pick our college first, then we pick a major that we think we like, and finally after 4 years, attempt to fit a job around the major. This is really backwards. If we choose the career first, the major that will get us to that career will become apparent. Finally, pursue the school(s) that excel in that major.

If I had any clue which OU you were talking about, I might be able to give you an answer. There are probably dozens of them.
You might want to look at US News & World Reports or the Princeton Review. Both have excellent web sites that will answer your questions.

A state university is as good as you make it.

I graduated from there, I have a good job and make good money, so I guess it is. Go Bobcats!
