I just finished re-watching GoT. Your discussion reminds of the oft quoted “power resides where men [sic] believe it resides”. The ranking is most valuable as a view into the soul of these institutions. Are they heartless and greedy like Vanderbilt? Sounds toxic to me. Public universities prioritize a thriving middle class. Even if their greedy I dont care. Its almost a plus for me honestly. Every public university that expands is like a tide that raises all boats in that region. Private schools can be ... lets say insular or in regions with inequitable affluence. Im curious if we get more termination shocks like we did in the Northeast this summer or further descend into sharia law in the red states will this be relevant to sane people?
I'm happy to read what came to my mind: "they’ll get a lot more clicks".
Hence, the need to focus on the good, bringing the good that is, however little or inconsequential it may appear to be, to figural salience for all to see, IMHO :)

Dear Professor Thorp,
I'm happy to read what came to my mind: "they’ll get a lot more clicks".
Hence, the need to focus on the good, bringing the good that is, however little or inconsequential it may appear to be, to figural salience for all to see, IMHO :)
Thanking you,
Yours truly,
