<p>Re: the Ph.D origin study, here’s a link on the Franklin & Marshall site to the actual data for LACs over a 75-year period, as well over a 10-year period:
<a href=“http://server1.fandm.edu/departments/CollegeRelations/bacorigins/BacOrg98.pdf[/url]”>http://server1.fandm.edu/departments/CollegeRelations/bacorigins/BacOrg98.pdf&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Though this particular study period ended in 1995, its scope was so large it still seems quite valid.</p>

<p>For what it’s worth, F&M was No. 22 in Ph.D origins for all disciplines grouped together. Oberlin was No. 1 overall. (johnwesley: Wesleyan was No. 7 overall in the 75-year study and No. 5 in the 10-year study. In economics, Wes was No. 5. Very good showing.)</p>
