There’s a big difference between thinking the U.S. News & World Report college rankings are of dubious value — and actually refusing to try to use them to an institution’s advantage.

A special NACAC committee has been conducting the series as part of an effort to study the impact of the U.S. News rankings. More survey results and a final report are expected from the panel next year.
