Agreed. Seems like schools with strong business and engineering strengths would rank much higher than strong liberal arts schools. That is why there is a strong difference. If Mississippi State is strong engineering why do they rank so very low??

They rank low because of admission requirements. They also rank low because they do not have a medical or law school.
They are BS rankings. I met a guy getting his Ph.D in electrical engineering from State. Out of curiosity I asked him why and he said per Capita doctoral students in his specific program the amount of federal grant money available to him was extremely high. Dude was a yankee with an undgrad at Notre Dame. He could have been lying but still it brings home the point that the rankings are stupid. You can get a world class education from anywhere... Even Google university if you apply yourself.
