 分享普林斯頓大學校長對於"大學排名制"的批評和反省 (該校經常名列前茅)。很值得讀讀

...ranking colleges is a dubious enterprise...

...I prefer alumni satisfaction 10 years post-graduation, though that information is harder to gather...

"......大學排名是一個可疑的事業......

" ...我更喜歡畢業 10 年後的校友滿意度，儘管這些信息更難收集..."

Here is a partial list of other factors that matter: net cost (that is, cost of tuition and fees minus financial aid — again, for students like the applicant); a high-quality faculty actively engaged in undergraduate instruction, including through the individualized supervision of independent work; and a learning culture composed of diverse students who study hard and educate one another.

以下是其他重要因素的部分清單：淨成本（即學費和雜費減去經濟援助的成本——同樣，對於像申請人這樣的學生）； 高素質的教師積極參與本科教學，包括通過對獨立工作的個性化監督； 以及一種由努力學習和相互教育的多元化學生組成的學習文化。
