<p>This is why the Forbes rankings are a more representative concept than USNWR: Williams is #1 followed by Princeton at #2, etc. Since all are baccalaureate programs with the same prospects for either entering the work force or graduate/professional school, it seems ridiculous to segregate LAC’s from university programs. There are universities in the USNWR top 10 that do not hold a candle to several of the LAC’s in the top 10. BTW, using listings in Who’s Who in America is not that crazy: you have to have distinguished yourself in a pretty major way to be included.</p>
