    latest US NEWS Report College Ranking

    PAC-12

    5 - Stanford
    20 - Cal
    23 - USC and UCLA (tied)
    52 - UW
    86 - CU
    109 - Oregon
    119 - UA
    121 - UU
    128 - WSU

    I know these are flawed, but gives a general idea of where Utah stands.

    I don't understand how Miami (FLA) can be rated number 47, their graduates think that Miami is spelled with a U.

    Nice. There is a pretty heavy private school bias in these rankings. So they are great if you like spending money unnecessarily.

    It's a little-known fact that the primary consideration in US News's rating criteria is "likelihood to find eternal companion." True story.

    "It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye."
    --Antoine de Saint-Exupery

    "Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold."
    --Yeats

    “True, we [lawyers] build no bridges. We raise no towers. We construct no engines. We paint no pictures - unless as amateurs for our own principal amusement. There is little of all that we do which the eye of man can see. But we smooth out difficulties; we relieve stress; we correct mistakes; we take up other men's burdens and by our efforts we make possible the peaceful life of men in a peaceful state.”

    --John W. Davis, founder of Davis Polk & Wardwell

    I'm proud of our school no matter where arbitrary rankings put us.
