USNWR 2009: Looking at the Data IX (Total Enrollment)

<p>The publication of the 2009 USNWR College Rankings provides an opportunity to compare schools based on a wide variety of data points. In this and in other threads, I urge the reader to think less about the absolute rankings and more about the nature and value-added of the data point being discussed.</p>

<p>Given the overwhelming response to the earlier thread on undergraduate enrollment, I thought it might be useful to add the full enrollment data for these colleges. Here it is and I urge you to think how the numbers affect the settings and the nature of the undergraduate experience that a college offers.</p>
