@flyertalk01 Thanks for pointing that out. Do you know why ASU alums are winning so many Fulbright scholarships? Is there a concerted effort to target these awards? I’m genuinely curious because ASU does appear to be punching above its weight. Beating Princeton, Columbia, Duke and Penn on a pretty regular basis definitely takes some doing!

Of course, in the interest of fairness, it’s worth pointing out that Duke has eight times as many Rhodes scholars (80 times more on a per capita basis). That difference is slightly more pronounced than the difference between 29 and 33%
