[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wasn't there an old magazine clipping or something that was shared on DCUM a while ago from like, the '60s that showed the rankings being almost virtually the same as today's US News rankings, except with the notable "decline" of some of the LAC's? That pretty much refutes the PP's point that the schools were never prestigious and have only US News to thank.[/quote] American Council on Education University Rankings, included in “Our Wonderful World (1962),” a guide for ambitious college applicants: Harvard Chicago Columbia California (Berkeley) Wisconsin Yale Cornell Michigan Princeton Johns Hopkins[/quote] Obviously Wisconsin changed its name to Washington University, Berkeley changed its name to Duke and Michigan changed its name to Rice. Vanderbilt still out of the list. [/quote]
