I don’t know.
Does it mean that schools will recruit wealthy students to increase their alumni giving ratio? (or will it?) Once everyone knows that giving to their alma mater increases the school’s ranking, does that discount that measure?
This is from US News,
“…Alumni giving rate (5 percent): …is an indirect measure of student satisfaction.
Is it? Maybe, but is it a measure of education?
Search Google for “alumni giving rankings site:edu” to see schools pointing out that alumni donations increase rankings.
(See my wife’s quote on metrics. She is one of the “Others”.)
