[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Will continue to fall [/quote]

We’ll see. It has largely fallen due to the change in the formula USNWR uses that seems to more heavily preference big state schools (and of course super well endowed prjvages) so that a lot of the great things about W&M are now discounted and they are counting things that are not an issue for most of DCUM posters like Firat Gen and Pell grants. [/quote]

Exactly. When looking at schools I would focus a whole lot more on their CDS and the caliber of students who go there. I don’t know too many people who prioritized the number of Pell grants given over, say, class size, access to actual professors, student qualifications, etc. [/quote]

Quite so.  The latest ranking criteria give weight to "social equity" measures which are unrelated to student academic qualifications, academic environments and student outcomes.  The value is dubious of rankings based on such extraneous factors.  [/quote]
