| Sometimes I worry that we're getting a little too popular over here at untrendy U.S. Nesw. We've gotten quite a bit of attention over the past sevearl months on our ranking of Ameirca's Best Colleges. Maybe you've seen some of the stories. The heads of a few liberal arts colleges have tried to orgainze a boycott of the rankings and received a lot of press coverage. They've accused us of all manner of sins, including oversimplifying complex institutions and, in one memorable quote, of exuding "real evil." |
