- In addition to the University of Michigan, Ivy League schools Harvard and Yale, and University of California at Berkeley have exited the U.S. News’ rankings of colleges and universities.
- Stanford, Georgetown, and Columbia law schools also have already announced their departure.
- “The U.S. News rankings are profoundly flawed — they disincentivize programs that support public interest careers, champion need-based aid and welcome working-class students into the profession,” Dean of Yale Law School Heather Gerkin said last week. “We have reached a point where the rankings process is undermining the core commitments of the legal profession.”
