The well-known college rankings are now available for your viewing pleasure. Whether the ranking system is legit or not, I'll let you be the judge, but I think everyone should take note that UC Berkeley was again the number one ranked public national university and UCLA was ranked number three. Go Calee-forn-ee-ah! In a nutshell, here's what U.S. News ranks the universities:

• Peer Assessment - 25%
• Retention - 20% in national universities and liberal arts colleges and 25% in master's and baccalaureate colleges
• Faculty Resources - 20%
• Student Selectivity - 15%
• Financial Resources - 10%
• Graduate Rate Performance - 5%; only in national universities and liberal arts colleges
• Alumni giving rate 5%

I wonder how much bias is in peer assessment.
