I was poorly saying that $50 to the Hurricane Club every year isn't the same as $50 to the university every year because consistent alumni donations is one of the measures of a university. That was the case before US News as well because it was supposed to indicate how well alumni valued their degrees.I know you know what you're talking about. But it's not just that. It's the system of sourcing donations. And it's really not much different from a "P-word" that definitely does not rhyme with "analytics" though others might somehow see it differently. Miami is just surviving.
When you live The University of Miami, your primary objective is always to see everyone around you elevate and do better. That's what family looks like. I'm gonna look after you.
As for the ranking.... I get that people seem to care about it, but if you understand what goes into the especially US News... it's definitely not all about academic prowess.
