<p>thanks, collegehalp. I wonder how the criteria Rugg’s uses differs from Gourman?</p>

<p>At first glance, it looks like Gourman reported only uni’s , but I see Swarthmore in its English list.</p>

<p>I notice, for example, Rugg had Lawrence for English, but Gourman did not. Also, Gourman has U IOwa for English, but Rugg did not.</p>

<p>The Gourman criteria favor research universities. The Rugg’s criteria favor LACs.</p>

<p>I don’t see Beloit on any of the lists for English. I <em>thought</em> I saw somewhere that it was a leading producer of English Phd’s ( I could be wrong - too much info!)</p>

<p>Also, for psyshcology, When I went to Lawrence, the admin tour person said that Lawrence recvd some kind of commendation or distinction from the American Psychology Assoc - or some such association. I just bobbed my head - the parent bobble head!</p>

<p>Maybe I will email him and get a specific association and the specific distinction.</p>

<p>collegehelp, are the above lists complete? I notice that for at least one of the categories you said ‘some’.</p>

<p>is there a link to this anywhere?</p>

<p>There is no link, only a book. From Rugg’s, I just picked out the LACs. Rugg’s also mentions some universities.</p>

<p>Oh man, this is so useful. Thanks so much, collegehelp!</p>

<p>how about econ?</p>

<p>Collegehelp,

</p>

<p>Where is STANFORD? So the university that has won most Turing awards (‘Nobel prize’ in computing), has created most famous IT companies such as Yahoo, google, SUN, CISCO, and H-P, has created most world changing IT inventions, and has been always ranked #1 by US NEWS and national research council was NOT even on your list? </p>

<p>Gourman ranking really sucks.</p>

<p>Here is a more complete list from the Gourman Report. No, it doesn’t include Stanford. Interestingly, the Gourman GRADUATE edition has Stanford ranked #2 for Computer Science. A professor who got his PhD at Stanford once told me that Stanford is not necessarily the best place for undergraduate education. They place a very strong emphasis on their graduate programs. The high proportion of graduate students attests to this. Last year Stanford Comp Sci graduated 82 bachelors degrees and 182 graduate degrees. I think Gourman is saying that Stanford Comp Sci is not so great for undergrad Comp Sci. I have seen this with Caltech, too.</p>

GOOGLE was founded by CS ph.d students Page and Brin.
H-P was founded by EE students.
SUN was founded by CS ph.d student Bechtosheim and 2 other MBAs.
CISCO was based on the multi-protocol router technology invented by stanford engineer Bill Yeager</p>

<p>collegehelp,</p>

<p>Anybody knowing a little about computer science will not believe the ridiculous ranking by Gourman.</p>

<p>collegehelp, could u post the econ rankings please?</p>

<p>and also the history rankings? thanks.</p>
