As I believe we have mentioned before, we are a country obsessed with rankings, and there are enough college rankings for just about everyone. Here is one we haven't seen before, however. Published by the Washington Monthly, this list focuses on colleges that contribute to the public good in three areas: social mobility, reserach, and service.
This brief story made us a little sad, because it suggests that college students don't spend much time following political news. Since this is an election year, we wish they paid more attention.
And finally, given the cost of higher education, this study surprised us a bit because it found that less than one third of families are considering the financial realities their children may face after college graduation.
