Princeton Review Rankings

I was just looking at the Princeton Review rankings of different colleges (www.princetonreview.com) and noticed that there is less information for USM than for many other colleges.  For instance, most of the other colleges I looked at are ranked in some way (under the category "Rankings and Lists"), but that category is blank for USM.  Similarly, most of the other schools have student comments reported in the "Students Say" section, but there are no student comments for USM.  Likewise, most other schools have something listed under the "School Says" section, but nothing is listed in this section for USM.  Can anyone explain these discrepancies?


(Asking that question, by the way, reminds me of the old Monty Python interview with the Minister of Public Housing -- a skit I highly recommend if you haven't seen it.)

I just noticed that both UM and MSU are listed, for instance, among the Princeton Review's "Best in the Southeast" (although UM is also listed as the #1 school in the country for "their students never study"!).  USM, though, isn't listed or ranked for anything.  What gives?

Was USM ever on this list?  Has it fallen off the list during the reign of Thames?

USM Sympathizer, thanks for identifying this information. It should be of great interest tomorrow morning when everybody is awake and viewing the board. I think that only you and I are awake at this hour.

Yep, I'm a born insomniac; it's past 3 a.m. where I am right now.

Obviously, someone either lost or forgot to send in the required questionaires and other assorted paperwork to The Princeton Review Rankings Committee. Tim Hudson MUST be the one responsible. After all, he's in Texas, isn't he?

A Pat Robertson Special Assaination Team may be needed for this one.

GW,


Right now we need Pat's help in deflecting this hurricane.  Perhaps he can send it to Texas and thus "kill two birds with one stone" (so to speak).

Yes, it would be nice to see the end of Cindy Sheehan.
