If you are thinking about going to graduate school, take a look at
http://www.phds.org/ratings.  The site allows you to create your own
customized rankings of graduate schools by assigning importance weights
to over 20 different criteria.  For example, you can create a ranking
system that combines educational effectiveness, low time to degree, and
high percentage of students with funding.  Or you can find programs that
graduate a high percentage of female students, or programs whose faculty
are frequently cited in the literature, and so on.  The rankings are
based on 1994 data from the National Research Council.

The site also contains a library of useful information for prospective
grad students at http://www.phds.org.  The library contains guides to
finding support for school and on surviving grad school once you get
there.  The site is run by students and faculty at Dartmouth College and
is supported by a grant from the Sloan Foundation.

Please pass this on to anyone you know who is considering graduate
school
