Covering the business of education and training

Imagine paying all of that money to get into the best school in the area and to learn from the best...only to be taught by some pimple-nosed, bottle-glassed, brown-nosing TA.

It happens the most at these schools.

10. Rutgers University - New Brunswick www.rutgers.edu

 9. University of New Mexico www.unm.edu

 8. University of Washington www.washington.edu

 7. Ohio State University - www.osu.edu   they are all at the football game

 6. University of Florida www.ufl.edu

 5. University of Tennessee www.utk.edu

 4. University of Kentucky www.uky.edu

 3. University of Michigan - Ann Arbor www.umich.edu

 2. Purdue University - West Lafayette www.purdue.edu

 1. University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign  www.uiuc.edu

Does it seem to you that an odd number of these are in the MidWest - TN, KY, IL, MI, OH and IN? So, what's up with that?

Students at UIUC characterize themselves as a "bunch of Midwesterners with the joyful addition of international students." No doubt, it is one or more of the international students who are teaching the classes.

The www.PrincetonReview.com rankings are a source of much debate, maybe even a few fist fights when the schools are neighbors. The book ranks schools in some 60+ different categories. The results are based on surveys given to those who should know best - the students who attend. And PR asked more than 115,000 such students.
