my school ranking is better than yours

being skeptical of those USNews college rankings since they are easily manipulated, washington monthly's alternative rankings sparked my interest last year.

slate's excellent in other magazines features this year's version from the moderately lefty mag. WM goes as far as to point out vastly different rankings than US News--and the reasons behind those differences.

incidentally, my school WashU in StLouis garners a #11 USNews ranking but checks-in at #45 in the WM rankings
