Most egregious (didn't bother comparing to 2018):
#3 Chicago #3 Columbia #10 Johns Hopkins #10 Northwestern #19 UCLA (above #22 Berkeley, #25 UVA, and #27 Michigan) #21 Emory #22 USC (tied with Berkeley lmao)
|

Date: September 10th, 2018 3:12 PM Author: Mewling buff lodge #3 Chicago -- Still out-WUSTL'ing WUSTL
#3 Columbia -- It's been around there for 20 years. Hardly a big move.
#10 Johns Hopkins -- Just a bit higher than historical norms.
#10 Northwestern -- See JHU.
#19 UCLA (above #22 Berkeley, #25 UVA, and #27 Michigan) -- Now that's a development.
#21 Emory -- Not sure. Never followed Emory much. Seems high.
#22 USC (tied with Berkeley lmao) -- WULA (Washington University in Los Angeles) |

Date: September 11th, 2018 4:59 PM Author: Sickened bat-shit-crazy reading party ape True though Columbia pretty clearly was firmly entrenched around #9 for 2 decades.
Seems like they took off a bit as NYC got cleaned up. Kids probably started to prefer the NYC lifestyle to Durham/Philly/Providence/Hanover, NH, etc |

Date: September 11th, 2018 12:29 PM Author: insanely creepy station national security agency Not sure if this helps or hurts Caltech, but it's new this year:
Social mobility: New this year, we factored a school's success at promoting social mobility by graduating students who received federal Pell Grants (those typically coming from households whose family incomes are less than $50,000 annually, though most Pell Grant money goes to students with a total family income below $20,000). See below the two measures that factor into social mobility.
Pell Grant graduation rates are weighted at 2.5 percent. This new ranking indicator measures the success of Pell Grant students on an absolute basis. To calculate this indicator, we use a school's six-year graduation rate among new fall 2011 entrants receiving Pell Grants. This assesses each school’s performance graduating students from low-income backgrounds. A higher Pell Grant graduation rate scores better than a lower one.
Pell Grant graduation rates compared with all other students are weighted at 2.5 percent. This additional new ranking factor compares each school's six-year graduation rate among Pell recipients who were new fall 2011 entrants graduating in 2017 with the six-year graduation rate among non-Pell recipients at the same school by dividing the former into the latter. The minority of schools whose Pell graduation rates are equal to or greater than non-Pell graduation rates score the highest. Altogether, this metric assesses each school’s performance at supporting students from underserved backgrounds relative to all of its other students. The lower a school's Pell graduation rate relative to its non-Pell graduation rate, the lower it scores on this indicator.
Scores for the new social mobility indicators were then adjusted by the proportion of the entering class that was awarded Pell Grants because achieving a higher low-income student graduation rate is more challenging with a larger proportion of low-income students.

So the editors added all sorts of arbitrary, self-referential variables, tweaked the weightings of each arbitrarily etc. until Harvard = #1 and so forth. It is totally arbitrary and random schools like Chicago, Rice, WUSTL etc. to show up much higher than they otherwise would.
