Get the correlation? There is no difference among any of these schools except for the size of their bag.

35 or so years? Where is the citation for this? U.S. News rankings have been around far longer than that.

They started in 1984 but didn't get consistent until around 1988/1989. For the first five years some schools weren't listed. The big takeaway is how stable things actually are.

Cite?

I don't need to cite anything. The rankings are out there, go pull them up.

Huh? Did you come up with this list yourself?

You clearly are ignorant.

Carleton professors ranked best in the nation for the 15th year in a row! That's got to count for something.

Note: I took at Wellesley as it's not for both genders and DC is a boy.

Such a precise measure
You people are a joke.

Yes, Williams is so New York. But New York still does not determine prestige, New England does.

DP, but you can look up when the US News rankings started and the first few ranking data. It's embarrassing to admit you haven't researched and don't know what you're talking about.

US news ranking is continuously built off of endowment per student for LACs. There's really no tangible reason Williams would be number 1 every year for decades.

Sort of, for universities they use endowment per student. For the LACs they calculate a 'student resources' number which is similar but not quite the same. The result is pretty much the same though. It is a large enough factor that for the top schools it is the decider.

It really gets the WASP crowd worked up but there is no difference in these schools except the size of their endowments.

Haha - love Wellesley (and Hamilton)!
