This needs more context.
Best colleges for what?
Value. Education. Banging co-eds. Campus amenities. Athletics.
What is it measuring?

As always I would like to see the ranking criteria to see how much BS is in these rankings

I'm sure Bama fans will lose sleep over their academia ranking. Meanwhile, they will continue to skull drag their opponent's on every Saturday for the foreseeable future.

Looks like those western and northern schools have been the benefactor of white privilege and need to distribute their wealth.

It's Forbes, so they tend to be business-minded in their rankings. Other media place greater emphasis on a bunch of different shite, including a bunch of bullshite woke stuff that nobody gives a shite about.

A school that churns out solid engineers who have high paying jobs all over the South is ranked 150 spots below any other "big" school?
Alright, sounds good.

Looks like Mississippi State forgot to pay off the spam site Forbes for their bulkshite rankings.
Posted on 9/8/21 at 12:01 pm to BHMKyle
LSU is ranked far better than expected
Posted on 9/8/21 at 12:23 pm to BHMKyle
These lists are absolute shite,listened to a pod cast by Maclom Gladwell this summer going over how full of shite they are.

I really can't say I would have gone to LSU if I were prospecting schools in 2021. LSU's academic rankings have tanked and the football program is falling apart, including the gameday atmosphere. NOLA is a mess. What's the draw for out of state kids anymore?
These rankings are meaningless still but the signaling mechanism of university prestige is real however unfortunate that is.

Didn’t you get rejected by Mississippi State’s vet school or something?
Posted on 9/8/21 at 12:53 pm to BHMKyle
I read through the list of criteria that are new. There is one now that has to do with how much aid the school gives to underprivileged kids and how they turn out. I'm not saying that is a bad thing but is it really a criteria one uses when picking schools. If a state like California throws a lot of cash at poor students at the expense of putting their state more in debt? I guess it helps those kids but how about the people paying all the taxes? Might be better in the long run. Might not.

One half of the top-10 schools are on the West Coast!....really?
