<p>vossron, I’m confused. Those percentages in the middle look like they might be they percentages of undergraduates who major in mathematics, NOT the percentage of all graduates who go on to earn math PhDs (unless a much higher percentage of math majors get PhDs than I’d have thought.)</p>
<p>So it looks like column two is the percentage of all graduates in a recent class (or classes) who graduate with a math degree … and column one is the per capita PhD productivity ranking (though it does not exactly agree with the ranking currently posted on the Reed site, which I believe has been updated recently). Right?</p>
