<p>Gee Bob, don’t think we were debating the relative merits of the US News Rankings, just the mechanics of where they place schools. BTW, as far a “wealth” is concerned, you mention “Wealthy is defined by endowment/undergrad” Okay, against my better instincts, I will bite. By undergrad, do you mean how much the undergrad is worth? The undergrad’s parental worth? How much in outside of school aid the undergrad is bringing to the school? Whether the undergrad has productive oil wells in a trust? Seems to me you don’t really know the undergrads who attend UMiami and are going by generalities. Throw in a little class envy/Occupy 99% musings and your answer is predictable.</p>
