Louisville #88 with a bullet. Making the ACC proud, no doubt.
Matches their percentage of intact adult teeth ratio. It's legit.As a side note, anybody else see WVU's 85% acceptance rate???
Hey, as long as we are in the same classification with other B1G schools, that has to be positive.

There was a Money magazine article that recently came out with a best of list. UConn was #19 public university on that list.
http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...e-rankings-finally-get-it-right-for-students/
Unlike U.S. News, which focuses on several measures that really shouldn’t matter to students — percentage of alumni who donate, for example — Money magazine tries to answer the questions that prospective students should be asking on their college tours this summer: What is the graduation rate, net price (what’s the real tuition they’ll pay), how much do they and their parents have to borrow in loans, and will they learn any marketable skills that will help them get a job in order to pay back those loans?

Regardless of the criteria used, if you generate a list that tells you to go to Harvey Mudd before going to Harvard, or to go to Claremont McKenna before going to Yale, you need to re-examine your methods and your head...
Not necessarily. Harvey Mudd is fantastic for some specific majors.
UConnDan97 said:How many of them, and which. Keep in mind that you are now comparing them against Harvard in the same major. I'm willing to concede whichever majors you find that happen to be ranked higher than Harvard's...
Harvey Mudd is a science and engineering school that only offers six majors (math, CoSci, physics, chem, bio, engineering). It caters to very specific students - ones on a fast track to careers in those fields (basically it is another Caltech). Harvard probably gets weighed down in this methodology by poetry and art history majors.
Wait, I thought this guy was Harvey Mudd...Harvey Mudd is a science and engineering school that only offers six majors (math, CoSci, physics, chem, bio, engineering).

If you're from Boston, and you say you went to Harvey Mudd (Harvah Mud.) will people think you went to Harvrd Med.??
compared to kansas state at 95.9% WVU looks like Harvard

Hmm I didn't read the whole article but would have assumed RU would have been top thirty or so? Maybe because they haven't finished assimilating the Med schools yet? That should prop them up to their traditional respected place.
