A very thoughtful article from Brennan Barnard and Forbes about the "fallacies and delusions" in college admissions that just need to die out. So many great points, but rankings have always been a hot button for me. From the article: "Stefanie Niles, vice president for enrollment and communications at Ohio Wesleyan University says that one of the biggest zombie ideas in college admission is that “rankings matter.” She counters, “they don't. Fit matters. A student's ability to take full advantage of the opportunities available to them on a campus is what matters, and one does that best when they feel challenged yet supported and encouraged.”
