[quote=Anonymous]I will try to find it...it was part of Malcolm Gladwell's podcast/research on why the USNews rankings (at least previous to their changes) rewarded all the rich private schools and penalized most of the public schools and the small regional schools. The series is quite interesting and believe it was done in 2021. Are you trying to claim Columbia attracts a certain kind of student that is overly concerned about ranking...but Harvard and the other ivy schools do not?[/quote] If this was the case dartmouth would be gaining many ranks as it has what is considered the best undergraduate teaching of any school in the us by many rankings and by far the richest students of any in the ivy leagues so what you say is proposterous. Dartmouth would be number one if the rich were advantaged. If anything the rankings hevaily bias the poor [/quote]
