" TIME and Statista analyzed the resumés of 2,000 top leaders in the U.S.—politicians, CEOs, union leaders, Nobel winners, and more across sectors—to assemble a list of the universities and colleges where they received their degrees. The list, which is weighted for school size..."

| Only surprise is ASU (not knocking it; half of my husband's family went there and they're all brilliant.) I also thought Duke would be higher (and I'm by no means a Duke fan - I am just surprised to see them just a little above ASU.) I would also have expected GU to come in at 8 or 9, ahead of Michigan and Chicago. |
The lack of service academies and NESAC schools. Both of those are very over represented per capita among politicians, CEOs and academics |
|
Others on the list ...
UCLA- 33 JHU-39 WashU-37 CMU-32 Tufts-66 Tulane-67 Georgia Tech- 73 Caltech-75 Rice-90 Amherst-92 |
The Military Academy is 44, and the Naval Academy is 82. |
Why these extra schools to show? Are you skipping the ones you think are less selective/prestigious? The reason I raise is that the ones you skip are great options for those who may not have the most perfect HS resume but still have a bright future ahead of them. Miami University (35), Iowa State (38), Syracuse (43), University of Alabama (45), LSU (58).... |
Well, yes. Schools I thought people would care about/ ask for... |
Also wanted to show which schools might be overrated. |
CMU is 52 not 32. |
|
Shocked at how high Northwestern and Michigan are.
Can someone compare these with the WSJ ROI listing? |
GU is where foreign leaders go to school. Not US leaders…. |
More surprised by NYU which is often bashed. |
|
We now have a new top 5 shortcut…HSPCM…with Penn the P and Columbia the C.
I will tell Jeff that must be used going forward
|
NYU is the least surprising. The successful outcomes are rich kids who want to live in new york for 4 years. |
