[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1. Take US News Top 50
2. Remove these 5: UC Davis, UC Irvine, UC Santa Barbara, Wisconsin, and Illinois
3. Insert these 5: BU, Northeastern, William and Mary, Wake Forest, Rochester
There’s your top 50…[/quote]
Remove Rutgers too which was ranked in the 60s, 70s every single year when things were sane[/quote]

Rutgers is fine. As is UMD and Ohio State. [/quote]
A little insulting to UMD to group it with those two schools, no?[/quote]

I think that Georgia Tech should be insulted that Emory is ranked higher overall, making it the highest-ranked university in Atlanta. GT stands out as a truly elite engineering institution. It is ranked higher than any Ivy League school in engineering and graduates more engineers than all the Ivies combined. I will concede that Emory bests GT in graduating expensively educated students and likely provides a strong liberal arts education, but it's just a school. GT's impact in engineering and technology is unparalleled.[/quote]
 Emory is the only prestigious school in Georgia, and GT isn't better than Emory at all the STEM fields just Engineering, and Physics, and Emory doesn't have Engineering so that's not even a comparison.
Emory is ranked higher than GaT for undergrad and graduate school. So those STEM programs aren't helping GT all that much.

(Emory 63 vs GT 70)

Emory has higher test scores, a lower acceptance rate, a students from better and wealthier backgrounds, and better placement in fields where prestige actually matters like Finance, law, even computer science ( Emory grads have higher salaries). 
Emory grads have an median post grad salary 82k, while GT is 84k. 
That's with Emory not having an engineering school, and having to rely on business and nursing grads. GT seemingly is underperforming for a STEM school when it comes to salary.

You really missed the mark here.

Can you compare, GT's salary to other STEM schools? 84k does seem on the lower side, and I know MIT and CMU is higher. I can't think of anymore STEM collegs. [/quote]

Almost all colleges are STEM colleges, just to differing degrees.[/quote]
