1. Finally. For years I've been hearing what a scam those "rankings" of US News and World Report are.

The rankings have long been exposed as being bad for education and certainly bad for the students. They do nothing to encourage the students to look for what is best for THEIR NEEDS. Now if they would stop ranking all the colleges.

2. Good

I hope this leads to more progressive reforms in Higher Education.
