[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I don't think this ranking will have much barring on US News. For instance I don't expect Johns Hopkins to fall down the rankings because it's ranked 99 on WSJ. [/quote][/b] It won't bear on USNWR - their methodology is much different and better, which is why it is the gold standard. Why WOULD you use a methodology for colleges that just looks at ROI? If so, why don't we all go to trade schools that turn out high paying trades? But then we wouldn't have nurses, teachers, mental healthprofessionals, historians, professors, sociologists, archaeologists . . . and all the other interesting and varied things that our children want to do and that our society needs. The WSJ list makes no sense but it does sell papers and makes people click on it - which is all that the rankings are about. IN other words, anyone discussing it here is a sucker.[/quote]
