according to the 2009 guidebook for america's best colleges from the us news & world report (see story here at ucsdnews), uc san diego, my alma mater was recently ranked the 7th (tied with university of wisconsin-madison & georgia institute of technology) top public schools. that's out of 164. not too shabby for a new-ish university. uc san diego is #35 nation-wide (262 schools). very very exciting. go tritons!
speaking of san diego, i am going down next month for a visit. can't wait!
