<p>Well US News' 2006 rankings are out:

<p>For the second year in a row, the top of the stack is #1 Yale, #2 Harvard, #3 Stanford. Then the usual suspects--4Columbia,5 NYU , 6 Chicago. 7 Penn, 8 UMich-AA, 9 UVa, and 10 Northwestern round out the top 10. </p>

<p>Seem to be lots of changes though. Boston U is tied for #20 with George Washington and Fordham is at #27 with BC, William and Mary, UNC-CH, and U of Washington.</p>

<p>U of WA climbing up, wohoo! lol. :D</p>

3

<p>WOW, look at Loyola LA -- # 58 go ..???? Friars?</p>

4

<p>Suprised to see that USF and Santa Clara are not in the top 100, however that is determined.</p>

5

<p>I'm not sure what ranking in the world puts BU ahead of BC, but that's just me. </p>

<p>(Aries, opinionated as always.)</p>

<p>Wow U of I almost hit top 25. I'm impressed.</p>

<p>BU and GW were both tied for #20 last year, also. Not much of a change for them. Interestingly, though, WUSL was also tied for #24, but it dropped to #24. I'm pretty surprised by Fordham's ranking. Seems to me that urban schools are dominating law rankings.</p>
