It's a college forum, not a KKKollege forum.

Which school did you go to?

Why is that relevant?

I'm not sure about "less politicized," but look for schools with a higher percentage of students who major in natural sciences and engineering. There's less time for nonsense in real courses.

Good suggestion. How can I look for that data? And, does it apply to undergrad too? (am confused by the US system of "liberal arts")

Go through all the college common data sets and look at the percentage of students in each major and do the calculation. I know of no online source that does this, but it would be helpful.

Or look at the number of administrators compared to faculty. The more of the former, the more politics will creep in to every day school life.

Since the GOP deny climate change and are shutting down anything having to do with open data that can be used to drive policy, because decisions should be made on the basis of the President's gut, I am not sure how you can say this.

Good suggestion, will see if there's an easy way to get the actual data.

This is a thread about college rankings. It is, by definition, not a serious discussion.

I also went to MIT. Or did I?

I may be the only one that is thrilled, albeit shocked, that my kid's "dream" school is not on the list!
