Oregon has none. That’s according to the just released QS world ranking. Who knows what their methodology is, but I’m guessing football doesn’t get a lot of weight. Not a good sign for Oregon’s future economic growth. We know what Lariviere’s plan to address this problem is – what’s Pernsteiner’s?
Any ranking system — QS is a London-based private firm of some kind or other — that puts U.C. Berkeley #21 in the world — is simply not worth paying attention to.
