Here's that ranking, if you're curious. Lupine Send a noteboard - 30/11/2009 02:27:37 AM
It's really interesting. Way, way biased towards the U.S., in my opinion. But even so, the rankings within the U.S. are fascinating, and often not what I would expect - Duke and Northwestern are below UofI, for instance, and University of Wisconsin - Madison is above it! (I don't know much at all about that school, but they do have a towering reputation as the nation's top party/drinking campus.) Edinburgh is 53, a couple slots above Rutgers.

Edit: looking at the methodology, it's basically biased towards large colleges, with only a small consideration given to accolades per capita. Which is of course a bias towards the U.S. :P
