<p>Gourman report is hilarious. It uses things such as :</p>
<ol>
<li>Number of Students Enrolled</li>
<li>Students, including quality of scholastic work and records of
graduates both in graduate study and in practice</li>
<li>Number of teaching and research assistantships; </li>
<li>Library, including number of volumes, appropriateness of
materials to individual disciplines, and accessibility of materials;</li>
</ol>
<p>Every one of these critera (supposedly for undergraduate programs) favors programs with large graduate programs. </p>
<p>Gourman is garbage for undergrad rankings, its a shame they label themselves as such.</p>
