[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There’s only one useful thing about the USNews rankings. They emphasize the reality that the United States has an unusually large number of first class colleges and universities. We should be proud of this.[/quote]

I basically agree with this and also think one of the better things about the rankings is when it ranks specific programs because it shows you that there are plenty of schools outside the "T20" or whatever that have phenomenal academics and you can get a first class education in your chosen area of study even at less expensive state schools or schools that award a lot of merit. People in this area go crazy about college but the truth is that if you are a reasonably academic (B+ or higher) American kid who is middle class or wealthier you can get a top notch college education. In some cases you will need to borrow a little bit of money but you can keep this number down a variety of ways and you may need to sacrifice on the "college experience" in order to do it affordably. But if you just want to get the education and training you need to have a good career then you can definitely do that here with a little effort and that's really not true everywhere else.[/quote]
