"In any case, I don't know what makes HMC or Rose-Hulman so great for engineering."

Go to a career fair at Rose-Hulman and you will see. Better yet talk to some of the students/alumni about what they are doing..

Or Olin....well, after graduating from there, my daughter's doing grad work at MIT. I think that's a pretty acceptable result, even by CC poster standards.

Ummm, well, let me say this... All the top employers recruit here. Google, Microsoft, Merck, Bristol Myers Squibb, etc. There are more important considerations than USNWR rankings. Much more important.

And you don't think the top employers also recruit at MIT, Caltech, Olin, Mudd, Cornell, Rose, etc. ? Top employers also recruit at every major state school. That doesn't necessarily mean that every major state school has a stellar engineering program.

I'm not saying they don't. I'm just saying not to sweat the details. They don't matter in the long run. Connecting with a professor who's doing research that you're really excited about is more important than who's ranked what in telecommunications and network optimization research.
