I hate it when lists make me feel bad.
Just because I am sexy, naked, a bassist, and sporting a top hat doesn't make me Duncan Coutts!

Yeah, they definitely did. And MIT = too high. Some of those schools would be way lower (and we would be higher) if they actually factored in students' quality of life.

Duke sucks

Every now and then I fall out into open air just to feel the wind, rain and everything.
And though the hum and sway gets me down
, I'll find the way to peace and openness.

Yeah, and Cornell is pretty high with those too. I think NYU is also high in suicides.

Our campus is so happy!

And Rob - you are very right. I'm a UMaryland fan cause that's where I'm from, and yeah...I hate Duke. It's a fricking country club, not a college.

U of H sooo belongs on these lists. well, let me re-phrase that. U of H when i am there soo belongs on those lists.
Whenever death may surprise us,
let it be welcome
if our battle cry has reached even one receptive ear
and another hand reaches out to take up our arms.


Nobody's gonna miss me, no tears will fall, no ones gonna weap, when i hit that road.
my boots are broken my brain is sore, fer keepin' up with thier little world, i got a heavy load.
gonna leave 'em all just like before, i'm big city bound, your always 17 in your hometown

Well RIT is #6 on this list....

Of course it is limited to Northern US schools and only focuses on the Master's program... but it is something.
