And, funny how he mentions some Universities using the peer survey to boost their school and push rivals down. Interesting reading.

Too bad everyone seems to rely on that one publication to fit a narrative about schools according to how they are ranked based on useless information. Even the information that US News bases their information on is wrong. They don't do their research, and I don't really blame them, as there are a ton of schools you will need teams of researchers to sift through all that information.
