<p>I would say you need to take into consideration 1) total winners, 2) ratio of winners to applicants, 3) historical track record, 4) other awards, etc., etc.</p>
<p>For instance, UChicago still had more total winners than Columbia, Duke, South Carolina, Nebraska, etc.</p>
<p>In general, UChicago has been in the top 4 or 5 for the past several years running, whereas some other schools have bounced around. In general, UChicago’s performance has been improving a lot–certainly since the 80s–and the more selective classes haven’t graduated yet so even in a couple of years you could see more of a jump.</p>
<p>And I’m not knocking those other schools. They all deserve credit for what they accomplished. I am merely pointing out that UChicago has been one of the top few schools by any measure in regard to Fulbrights in recent years. If UChicago isn’t doing well in Fulbrights then hardly any other school is doing well.</p>
<p>OK, you forced me to dig these up. Hahahaha. (You do represent the Duke contingent, right?) Cheers… I’ll let you do the historical analysis! These are just what I found in a quick search.</p>
