IMO, collegiate rankings should place more emphasis on graduating their students and their students post graduate success (retention, endowment, starting & mid career earning levels, nationally competitive awards)
USNWR uses a lot of that data in their algorithm.

They use grad rate, not the other, small percentage though.

And 25-30% of the ranking is their perception by other college presidents/chancellors.

The only things, IIRC that he mentioned that are used is the graduation rate and a small component is endowment per student.
