哈佛沃顿联手推出－2005美国大学最新排行榜

送交者: chill 2005年2月04日14:47:26 于 [教育与学术]http://www.bbsland.com

美国大学最新权威排名—由哈佛肯尼迪学院哈佛经济学院沃顿商学院共同研究发表
排名依据全美所有大学生在被录取的学校中做出最终选择的数据来计算。简单说就是假设一个美国学生被所有的大学录取，他最终会选择哪一所大学的可能性越大，那所大学的得分就越高。

这个方法很公平的反映了美国大学在美国人心中的地位

An interesting research paper on an unconventional method of ranking
colleges from authors (Christopher Avery, Mark Glickman, Caroline
Hoxby, Andrew Metrick) from the John F. Kennedy School of Government at
Harvard University; the Department of Health Services at the Boston
University School of Public Health, the Department of Economics at
Harvard University, and the Department of Finance of The Wharton School
at the University of Pennsylvania.

In particular, Caroline Hoxby from Harvard, has done many notable
studies in this area.

Their methodology is based on student preference in where they choose
to finally enroll among acceptances, in effect a series of head to head
competitions.

As one of the authors (Metrick) states from the Wharton site discussion
of this research paper
(http://knowledge.wharton.upenn.e ... Article&id=1104)
(The complete summary article is listed at the bottom): "When a student
decides to enroll at one college among those that have admitted him, he
effectively decides which college won in head-to-head competition. This
model efficiently combines the inxxxxation contained in thousands of
these wins and losses, and produces a ranking that would be very
difficult for a college to manipulate."

But can colleges be judged based on who "wins" the competition for
students? Metrick and his co-authors contend that they can. "First,
students believe and act as though their peers matter," the researchers
say in the study. "This may be because peer quality affects the level
of teaching that is offered. Alternatively, students may learn directly
from their peers. It is reasonable for students to care about whether
they are surrounded by peers with high college aptitude ... Second,
students - especially the high achieving students on whom we focus -
are not ignorant about college quality. They gather inxxxxation from
publications, older siblings, friends who are attending college,
college counselors and their own visits to colleges."

The research article ranks the schools as follows (pages 26-28 of the

已有的事，后必再有。
已行的事，后必再行。
日光之下，并无新事。
岂有一件事，人能指着说，"这是新的"。
哪知，在我们以前的世代，早已有了。
