USNews Question

<p>Not that I care much about ratings or anything, and I'm going to go to WPI most likely anyways, I was just wondering, after looking at the 2006 rankings, why did WPI drop 11 places from 53 to 64? I mean, is there a specific location where WPI dropped significantly that would so negatively affect their ranking, because I don't think the formula changed between 2006 and 2007. Thanks for any insights.</p>
