Top Universities by Reputation 2012

Rutgers actually has some pretty good graduate programs. However, their undergraduate program is just so-so, relative to highly-ranked colleges.

Rutgers did produce some economist dude named Milton Friedman. I think he might have won American Idol or some other notable award.

I would like to go on record saying the Amherst, Williams and Swarthmore all suck, but I would not let any woman from those schools come anywhere close to giving me a Denali (Tikka’s phrase). These schools’ student populations rank 10 in body hair and achieve a 5 in hotness purely due to age.

Pomona? No idea.

Every year, somebody posts about this particular “ranking” and we all agree that it is bullshit.

UMass at 39, lol… a reputation for drinking and rioting perhaps. Darthmouth and Brown haven’t been paying their proper bribes it seems.

it probably comes down to methodology and where the people you ask are located. Do you give people a list of every school in the world and ask them to rank order them, or ask them what the 1 best school is, or the 10 best schools, or the 100 best schools ? you’d get a different result in each case, and there are some absurdities in that list, such as UMass ahead of Brown

UBC WHUTTT!!

Washington!!!

the power of starbucks and microsoft

I know right? Can’t say for every faculty, but at least the one my wife went was just vacations for the most part.
