Over at the Princeton Review they released a "Best 357" Colleges list. They rank schools according to all types of stuff like top party schools, "most likely to vote for Kerry", red tape, academics, lots of stuff.
 
Drexel, how I <3 you.

#15 Professors Get Low Marks Academics
#11 Professors Make Themselves Scarce Academics
#3 Long Lines And Red Tape Administration
#4 Students Dissatisfied With Financial Aid Administration
#1 Campus Is Tiny, Unsightly, Or Both Quality of Life
#9 Least Happy Students Quality of Life
 
#9 The Toughest To Get Into Academics
#13 Little Race/Class Interaction Demographics
#13 Great College Newspaper Extracurriculars
#3 Students Pack The Stadiums Extracurriculars
#6 Jock Schools School Type
#11 Town-Gown Relations Are Strained Social

Wow I wonder who got #1 in packing stadiums. I thought K-ville was pretty unique. I guess they're going for pure numbers.
 
My school (Purdue University) only made one category:

Teaching Assistants Teach Too Many Upper-Level Courses (#5)

which I find very odd . . . so far I've had one TA teach an upper level division, and he was one of the two best Math professors I've ever had by FAR.

BTW, I swore he had a different Manchester United shirt on every day. I wonder how many he owned . . . I think someone said he bought a new one every time he went to one of their games.
