that was an excellent link you posted, law. did everybody notice how california schools totally dominate the listings? we have the best colleges in the nation without a doubt.
it was nice to see san jose state make the list. that's an excellent cal state.
as for pomona, xiaoxue you are dead on. this campus has been on a decade long slide and things just keep going from bad to worse. so many outstanding faculty have left, many earlier than expected, that nobody has an accurate count anymore. there probably have been more than fifty losses in business alone in the past three years, and many of those were among the best teachers in the entire university.
it wasn't always this way. back in the late 1980s and early 1990s the pomona campus, like its northern sister with a similar name, was ranked in the top ten among USNWR best western universities. last year we slid all the way down to a tie for 32d from an all time high of 7th--that's probably the deepest drop of any school in the nation.
and we've been pulled from the princeton review best in west list too while san bernardino was added to the list. that's really grim, isn't it?
