For the department of 'No duh' (with a class size of 20)

My dislike of the 'power rankings' for schools is well known. They are stupid, force people to focus on the wrong things, misrepresent the quality of education especially at large universities, and keep administrators and professors from focusing on the students.

Anyway, here is an article I found. This is from the department of 'No shit Sherlock'. In fact you can search Google for more things like this. I really think something needs to change in reference to this. Here is a link to an article closer to the source of the presentation.

Basically the higher education system in the US needs reform. Period. It is too important to get it wrong.
