<p>Tamlin, Mancune is a loyal member of the Yale community. Nothing wrong with he/she being an advocate for such a wonderful school, but perhaps you haven’t been on CC long enough to be aware of the techniques people use to promote their favorite schools by putting down others–such as posting an underhanded dig on a rival school’s forum.</p>
<p>Remember that the same U.S. News that reprinted these global rankings of the QS World University Rankings, has put Princeton just ahead of Yale over the past several years in its own ranking system and that seems to irk some Yalies. It is all silly, however, since you could come up with a thousand different criteria and weighting systems, all just as valid, and have 1,000 different ranking orders.</p>
