Monday Sept 13th UF to discuss US News & World Report Ranking

350 kids spread over all the public schools in Florida is less than a drop in the ocean. Losing 350 NMF (if that many across the whole system) won’t register on any scale. Plus, some of the schools are still giving the NMF awards so should still have the same number, and maybe some of the NMF have grandparents in Miami so can still get a benefit (although not like Benacquisto).

At this point, it is really UF that isn’t offering anything specifically to NMF and is making them compete for merit scholarships with everyone else. Just like they did before 2016.

UF alum will continue to donate money to keep them ranked ahead of FSU and Miami. That’s all they care about as far as rankings go.
