<p>Congrats to the Administration of URichmond for its impressive national rankingS. I am still interested in reading the comments of UR Admissions concerning what if anything the school is doing to increase its some what disappointing US News #40 ranking being tied with Franklin and Marshall College (PA), Union College (NY), Sewanee—University of the South (TN).</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>
