Dear Colleagues: Sorry for the follow up email but I want to clarify an error I made in my last communication. The U.S. News and World Report Graduate Education Survey does not ask me to
<b>rank </b>programs but rather <b>rate</b> them, on a scale from 1 (marginal) to 5 (outstanding). Anyway, thank you to those who already sent me feedback. There is still time to do so. </div>

If you are somehow personally/professionally knowledgeable about any particular graduate education program in the nation and if you have a favorable/unfavorable opinion or know about their reputation in your circles, please let me know (along with a rating!). </div>

While I don't lend much legitimacy to how U.S. News and World Report ranks universities, I think it might be good to use this survey to express concerns folks may have with recent changes taking place in higher education and with how some schools/programs have
changed their curriculum or treated their faculty in attempts to appease the current federal administration (just my opinion!)</div>
