^ C-M makes sense.  Maybe they don't game the USNWR rankings, but people in the know *know* they are studs on CS, quantum computing, etc.[/quote]

What's the CS attrition rate at CMU?  If CS students can't graduate, CMU name is meaningless in sociology or anthropology.  A Princeton sociology major can go to the White House. [/quote]

NP - why can't a sociology major from CMU also go to White House?[/quote]

There's no reason whatsoever. Honestly, the number of ignorant people on this site is infinite, and the poster above is one of them. And for the record, Princeton's sociology department technically doesn't even rank in the top ten. If graduating with an undergraduate major from a top-ranked sociology department were a prerequisite for a White House job, I'd be focusing on students from Wisconsin or Michigan.
