Diversity & Safety are holding A&M and UGA back.

Edit: Looking into it that only makes up about 10%.

Academics & Value make up 50%.

Ha..we got an A in 3 very important areas:

1. Greek life
2. Best looking girls
3. Best looking guys

And an A+ in the most crucial component: athletics.

Overall we were given an A.

And Farmer..in ranking public universities, South Carolina was 40th on this list. Didn't click on your link so not sure which top 100 you are referring to.

Any survey that has acceptance rate as a major selection criteria is discredited from the beginning. How does diversity factor in the quality of the education and the same for athletic performance.
