Ram Ray, Tulane is ranked #50 and has been ranked that for quite a while.

I never even suggested that BU was = to Stanford.

USNWR rankings tend to really focus on undergraduate education, which is why I tend to look at the other rankings as being a bit stronger. Some suggest that CGS is what keeps BU in the mid range.

Either way 53 is a strong ranking out of what…200 schools ranked in US News?

I really think BU’s strongest academic peers are NYU, Tulane, GWU and maybe UT-Austin.
