[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 E[b]mory 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. [/b]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]

Yet the ivies with data separated out for school of engineering show average starting salaries of above 100k, just like MIT and CMU do, the companies that hire ivy engineers on average are more prestigious, there are more startups founded by ivy engineers than GA TECH despite GT graduating more total engineers. Some single ivies eclipse GT in this. PhD placemtn in to Engineering is also much better from the ivies with E-schools than GT. Ivy engineers do better in every metric; rankings do not compare metrics such as outcomes, they compare % on need aid and other BS that does not relate to quality of education[/quote]
