You should include as part of your ranking criteria undergraduate accomplishment on a per capita basis in such areas of highly competitive fellowships and scholarships for graduate study, i.e., Rhodes, Marshall, Goldwater, Truman, Luce, Fulbright, Beinecke, Watson, Hertz Foundation, National Science Foundation Fellowships, etc. You don't even consider this important factor when assessing the quality of education of various institutions. Shame on you!!! Also your rankings in general are full of inaccuracies. Your inclusion of the nation's three military academies on you list of institutions whose first year graduates receive the highest salaries is the most flagrant of these, as all graduates of the service academies enter the workforce as second lieutenants in the military and their salaries are pathetic. They are greatly underpaid.
