| in reading the methodology, it is unclear that they accounted for university size. They made some adjustment for size, but I couldn’t tell if that was about the organization or about the school. |

These lists are only interesting in terms of schools that punch above or below their rate compared to the USNews rankings.
Just a quick eyeballing...it seems Georgetown, Indiana, Howard (44 on full list), University of Hawaii (46), University of Iowa (51) punch considerably above their weight as example vs. the USNews rankings, while schools like Vandy (39), WashU (41), Caltech (49), Ga Tech (75), Amherst (85) and then a school like Williams which doesn't even make the top 100, punch below their weight. |
