U.S. News & World ReportModerators: PonyPride, SmooPower Re: U.S. News & World ReportNortheastern and BU are a couple that used the quantitative components, like % of classes with 20 of fewer students, to shoot up the rankings. I'm confident SMU is focused on the metrics without sacrificing long term success.
Re: U.S. News & World ReportIronically there's a chance the rankings could come out exactly the same time as our ncaa punishment
Re: U.S. News & World ReportStill a year or so away, huh?

Re: U.S. News & World ReportI'm thinking this week

Re: U.S. News & World ReportIsn't it always though
Re: U.S. News & World ReportDoes anybody know if the male to female student ratio has any weight in the USNWR rankings ?
Seems like it should since most schools strive to have a 50:50 balance. I would think if the ratio is out of balance it is an indicator of a shallow applicant pool Pony 81
Re: U.S. News & World Report
Or an unbalanced assortment of majors. Heavy engineering schools will be heavily male, the opposite with female heavy majors. Sent from my LG-H810 using Tapatalk "I think Couchem is right."

Re: U.S. News & World Report
I'm pretty sure lyle's gender ratio is really good for an engineering school.
Re: U.S. News & World Report
I tried to find the number but didn't see it anywhere on the Lyle page. I am positive it is higher than average. Shake It Off Moody
Re: U.S. News & World ReportInteresting - Arkansas' endowment is at $920M.

For some strange reason, one of the few universities that REFUSE to use their school colors: Harvard Crimson & Yale Blue.
Re: U.S. News & World Report
No exact numbers but some generalizations. http://www.smu.edu/Lyle/AboutUs/FactsandFigures Women in Engineering – The Lyle School is honored to have one of the largest percentages of women in engineering studying at SMU. With a percentage that is twice the national average, the Lyle school’s goal is to reach gender parity in the next three years. Shake It Off Moody
Re: U.S. News & World Report'Parity?'
So much for excellence. (sarcasm) So absurd. BRING BACK THE GLORY DAYS OF SMU FOOTBALL!!!

Re: U.S. News & World ReportSo you don't think an engineering school can be excellent with half women?

No consideration for gender balance. Notice that TCU is about 60% female but they don't have engineering do they? 23% peer and counselor reputation 18% grad rate 10% finl resources 8% class size 7% faculty compensation 13% acceptance rate, top 10% (big help at state schools) and test scores Last edited by tristatecoog on Mon Sep 07, 2015 1:01 pm, edited 1 time in total.
