I thought it was fairly common knowledge that most universities speicalize in some and are lacking in others. That's why students move across the country to find the programs that fit them.
By acknoledging better programs and better areas, instead of better schools, it can only help the readers and the magazine.
All universitys get funding from different areas, and apply it in different ways. A program (and attitude) ranking, or at the very leasts, a broken down ranking of stats would help.
