<p>LOL I was one of the 100 physical science graduates from University of Pittsburgh for that time period...it must have been the chemistry that put them over the edge to get so high in the lists.</p>
<p>I earned my geology degree in 2004 and during the calender year, 9 people earned their BS in geology (including one in Environmental Geology).</p>
<p>Physics and Physics/Astronomy had 15 graduates during the same period.</p>
<p>That gives a remainder of 76 chemistry degrees during this period...seems very lop-sided, but predictable and interesting at the same time period.</p>
