[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Everyone seems to hate the US News rankings, but they are the gold standard for now. [/quote] Gold standard of what? Hype? Their attempt to quantify colleges means they pick "objective" criteria that are not most people's criteria, and that can be and are juiced by the colleges. How do you measure attention paid to undergraduates? Quality of life? Rigor of teaching? These are the factors most sane people will be looking at and they aren't captured by these ridiculous rankings.[/quote]
