[quote=Anonymous]Research budget isn't everything. The Big10 is mostly giant, Midwest land-grant RESEARCH SCHOOLS. Of course it's going to have the biggest research budgets. But the research budget says nothing about overall academics. You can't compare the ACC to the consortiums or the Big10 to the consortiums. You can compare the Big10 to the ACC or the CIC to the other consortiums. Looking at endowments, they're about equal. They both have average endowments of about 2.5 billion - though Maryland has the second lowest endowment in the Big10, so it's being helped up again. The ACC has the higher mean US News ranking, a much higher median US News rating, and a fairly higher Academic Progress Rating, the NCAA's tool to evaluate academics.[/quote]
