I can understand apprehension about using WSJ and USNWR rankings. But they are holistic, fairly objective rankings. They are way more reputable than 1 stat about PhD percentages. Maybe kids at top schools find employment opportunities are widely available to them without grad degrees?

NMT students are also the #39 highest paid students upon graduation acording to PayScale.

[Top US Colleges ? Graduate Salary Statistics](http://www.payscale.com/best-colleges/top-us-colleges-graduate-salary-statistics.asp)

It is also the #19 most desirable small school by NewsWeek ranked between prestigious Barnard and Carleton.

Even if you do not respect NewMexicoTech as greatly as I do, you must admit it is at least a notch better than every other school suggested in this thread and exceptional considering the demographic of students it admits. -.-
