[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of wishful thinking here. If rankings didn't matter, schools wouldn't put so much effort into "gaming" the rankings. Saying "rankings SHOULDN'T matter" is a reasonable poistin, saying "rankings are not important" is nonsense. Reed College was hopeful that others would follow suit, but VERY few have. Rankings remain relevant.[/quote] Well, schools might find them relevant enough to try to game the system, and parents might find them relevant for status purposes but the most relevant information for the student can't be found in rankings. I agree that it would have been better if others followed Reed's example, but I am glad that it has thrived on its own terms.[/quote]
