Guess this will become part of Business Week's criteria for ranking the best universities and colleges! Keep sending the money to them alumni and taxpayers and the colleges will guarantee we will provide proper indoctrination!

Bet my college (The Evergreen State College) is in the top 10.
How'd I ever survive that????

It is a welcoming place," said Natalija Jovanovic, a graduate engineering student at MIT and president of the Rainbow Coffee House, a gay, lesbian, transgendered, and bisexual social group. ................ GLBT.... who wants to hang out with a bunch of people who don't even know what they are? How can someone study advanced engineering and not even know if they themselves are male or female?

Could I reprint the findings and call it "Best anti-homosexual colleges"?

and most extensive campus services for gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgendered students
If they're "just like everyone else", then why do they need special, dedicated services?
To: georgiarat
Thank goodness. This is what I call useful consumer information.
Conservative parents need this kind of information when helping their kids make such an expensive and life-shaping decision such as where to experience their college education.
I applaud this. Money well spent, and my heartfelt thanks to the Advocate for providing us with this service!

I'm thinking that UT Austin will rank really high.
There is no shortage of limp-wristed, purse-swinging bed-wetters on that campus.

NYU is #1. It's where I went to grad school and agree with the ranking.
The schoo's sports team name is the "Voilets". How's that to strike fear in the opponent?
To: Teflonic
Yes, this is a double edged sword. I'm heavily inclined to send my kids to the schools either not on the list, or flagged as "anti-homo" by these pervs.

The ironic thing about this is that these same campuses
are becoming increasingly "un-friendly" to those of us who disagree with this aberrant behavior.
So much for the "marketplace of ideas".
To: agooga
Hey, isn't Evergreen State the same school that Rachel Corrie went to?!
To: georgiarat
The rankings are calculated on a ``gay point average," which looks at 20 factors, including whether a school offers a resource center for gay and lesbian students, a variety of gay studies courses, scholarships specifically for gay and lesbian students, gay and lesbian social events, and procedures for reporting gay and lesbian harassment.

Instead of a Top Ten, wouldn't their preferred colleges be "Bottom Ten"?
Anyways, my guess is the lower-performing schools have better grads overall.

I think you meant "violets", but in spelling it "voilets", it reminds me of "toilets"... which... nevermind.

So this can be used by parents to avoid schools.
I bet some of the "snootier" schools were included to make it seem like ALL their graduates were homosexuals.
Who knows it may eventually be reduced to" University X graduate!? I didn't know you were a homosexual!"

Soon, they'll be teaching 6-18 year-olds in California about the differences between "Tops" and "Bottoms"...

Sixteen of the schools are in New England, including six in Massachusetts.
That number seems low to me.

I wonder how much "value" a degree has from some of these universities.
Is it the degree or the connections you make?
I remember decades ago, some universities were outright ridiculed for the "low value" degree.
