Actually I must slightly disagree with @grreat. Berkeley may be the strongest University in the world at the PhD level (although I also disagree and think Stanford and Harvard with the exception are engineering are comparable) but that is not true at the professional school level. Berkeley has no medical school and while its other professional schools such as law and business are very good, they generally rank outside the top 10. Alivisatos could and should try to improve UChicago across the board, the real work needs to come in the biological sciences and the Medical School. He really needs to get the professional schools out of the middle of the top 10 and in to the top 3. While the prestige of the College has increased immeasurably under Zimmer, as long as it uses binding early decision and EDII it will never really be considered to be in the top five.
