That isn't a list of the schools with the worst professors, it is a list of the schools with the whiniest students....
I don't place much weight in any of these lists because there are so many out there that you are guaranteed to find almost every college on a top 25 list for something.
Iceman, if you see the methodology they used it would not be a shocker that the SAs are on that list. Some of the factors automatically give the SAs an edge.
~~~ Cost
~~~ Retention
~~~ Employment
You have to look at the methodology. My SIL loves to brag that our niece attends the number 1 college in the nation for international exchange. Not hard to be number 1 when it is mandatory to go overseas for a semester to graduate from their school. Her other DD just got into Rowan university. She tells people it is ranked number 3 for engineering. Rowan is not number 3, it is not better than MIT or Cal Tech, or any SA. However, it ranks out that way for public schools in the Northeast.
Like I said I can find a list somewhere that will rank almost every college in the top 25 for something.
VT is ranked number 1 for the best college food! Let's be real, food matters when you chose a college. Nobody flame me, that is tongue in cheek. I am a proud Hokie parent.
Anyone who struts the high ranking or bemoans the low ranking of his/her school needs to get out into the sunlight.
With all due respect to the 134 Best Colleges and Universities, there are not 134 better ones than Georgia Tech.
