[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For arts I would give the edge to Wesleyan while for STEM or Social Sciences it would be Carleton. I think any of the three would be fine for humanities.[/quote]
For a social sciences field such as economics, Wesleyan and Vassar place much more highly than Carleton when considered by faculty publishing:

What's your basis for saying this? The site is updated monthly.[/quote]

Spot checking for schools of interest in the past. They might be adding monthly on request but they don’t delete automatically when someone moves or retires where I checked. I also checked the other way, seeing if they were capturing all the publications for faculty at a certain school. They were not, as their system used more of a push model from I could tell. Between the schools I was comparing it was off by a factor of about 10 in terms of measuring based on current research (ie published in the last decade.) Like a school with 10 publications in the last decade ranked higher output than a school with over 100.  I’m sure it’s more accurate for some schools than others. [/quote]
