Forbes ranking of the top 100 colleges is out and we didn't fare too poorly.
President Morty still has some work to do however. His old school,
Williams, is ranked number one, while NU checks in at number 11, behind
Stanford and Chicago but ahead of Cal Tech, Yale and Notre Dame. Michigan,
the next member of the Big 10 to be ranked, was 93. Here is a link to the
rankings:

I have never been able to understand how Forbes calculates its rankings but
this list is always dramatically different than US News or Princeton Review,
in part because it doesn't distinguish between liberal arts colleges and
research universities.
