US News and World Report over the past decade Forum

[Yanky91]

Does anyone know where I can find the US News and World Report rankings over the past decade? I'm talking about the top 50 schools, not the top 20. I want to see the trends over the years of all the tier 1 schools. If you find it please post it.

So I have a question that no one can answer. Was Illinois lying about their numbers for decades, because when I look at the rankings they were a top 20 school in the 90s?

After the scandal there was an audit that determined the numbers were legit up until the last year.

Looks like I was wrong. I remember the initial report saying it was only one year, but the ABA ended up fining Illinois for fudging data for six classes.
