[quote=Anonymous]I applied to college in 1977-78 and lived in CA. And Stanford was as I described it. So USNWR, which had zero credibility at that point, puts it at number 1 in 1983 (which generates interest/controversy/attention that ranking HY or P #1 would not have produced) and the rest is history. This is not a persuasive argument that change at the top happens slowly. It's a story about fads and communications networks (and major investments or disinvestment) changing the visibility/popular perception of educational institutions that have long histories, but whose constituencies are continually evolving.
