Columbia and Princeton should switch places with Duke and Brown.

Brown over CalTech, Princeton.
Duke over CalTech, Princeton.
Seriously?

Akin to placing Columbia over MIT and Stanford

The consensus is Harvard - and Columbia - should be near the top. So, plenty of reasonable minds in the US think Columbia took its rightful place as #2.

So, why all the bickering in dCUM? DCUM is a DMV regional website. Virginia just elected Glen Younkin who ran against teaching CRT in virginal public schools. CRT is NOT taught in Virginia public schools. This election was all about racial pandering to racial fears. I suspect Columbia scares DMV people. Columbia was the only ivy that didn’t discriminate against Jews in 1930’s. It’s one of the most diverse ivies. In short, it’s not WASP. It’s not DMV.

I think WSJ is a better ranking

WSJ is the consensus of WSJ readership. It’s behind the paywall. It’s the consensus of the few and far between, those few who are willing to pay for something that is free. It’s not the consensus of people like me and you.

It's right here on the Times higher education website.

This ranking is fairly good but Columbia is low and USC is too high. Also WSJ is harsh to public schools because UCLA is 27 and Berkeley is 36.

Columbia can certainly hold its own against MIT and Stanford except STEM, where it’s only slightly weaker. Emphasize on slightly.

IMO the true top ten in my eyes…

1 Harvard
2 Yale
3 Stanford
4 Columbia
5 MIT
6 Princeton
7 Chicago
8 Caltech
9 Northwestern
10 Johns Hopkins

Based on my experience across different industries including management consulting… and work experience in Europe and MENA… to each their own.

Michigan is #24. At least they got one US public in the top 25.

+1. This is a very informed list imo. Once you get out of US, schools that have strong research and professional schools tend to outshine the oversized LAC types. I know many would disagree with Columbia at #4 and rounding out #9 and #10 with NU and JHU, but I think this is more representative of how global industries tend to view these schools.

Columbia at #4 doesn't strike me as improbable at all. I think if Princeton weren't perennially ranked #1 by US News, it would be considered less desirable than Harvard, Yale, and yes, even Columbia within the Ivy League.

God, this is stupid. Einstein was faculty at Princeton, for christ's sake. Einstein.

You people and your rankings are a pox on the entire college process.

What did Einstein care about wall street? This list is just for that.

Lol Einstein is ancient history. Try to stay current. Who else is associated with Princeton besides Brooke Shields?

Ok, and Enrico Fermi was faculty at Columbia. And Obama is a Columbia grad. What’s your point?

Don’t forget the Manhattan Project.

You might be interested that Einstein was never on faculty at Princeton. He did research at an affiliated research lab on campus. He never lectured in English, there was always a German translator. Just something interesting.

Oh... yikes. That's embarrassing. The lab - Institute for Advanced Study - is not affiliated with Princeton, it just happens to be located in Princeton, NJ.

Princeton boosters.
