GU is where foreign leaders go to school. Not US leaders….

True about foreign leaders. Untrue about US

Bill Clinton, Tenet, Petraeus, Leahy, Podesta, Kelly, McAullife, Buchanan, Durbin, Murkowski, Gates, etc.


Other than Clinton, not impressive.

Btw I’m outside the DC bubble.

Seems like it used to be a good school.

Still is clearly.

It seems like you have tons of schools tied
With 82 or 81…how do they rank the schools with the same score?

Boston's best Northeastern didn't make the list either.

LAC's have lost a lot of standing over the past 30 years. DCUM won't admit it.

Engineering and educating rich Texans who then go on to stay rich Texans

A glorified SMU then. Shouldn't be ranked higher than Vandy and Emory


Why not? If the list measures outcomes and Rice has better outcomes, maybe Vandy and Emory needs to admit more kids who will be nepo hires

Maybe US News should start measuring influence then... and Rice is more of a LAC so they have an advantage by being so small.

Can someone compare these with the WSJ ROI listing?


More surprised by NYU which is often bashed.


NYU is the least surprising. The successful outcomes are rich kids who want to live in new york for 4 years.


Sounds like same as most of the schools.
