K-State is a glorified Junior College

For a while Higher Education ranking service Kaplan/Newsweek had K-State in it's top 25 most desirable large public universities. Everyone who's been to Manhattan, KS will laugh at K-State being "desirable," but, none-the-less, there they were on that stupid list. They've now been dropped out of the rankings because KSU was misrepresenting their statistics:

"The piece of information causing the gaffe was not the Kansas weather, but K-State's reported admission rate. The school's planning and analysis office mistakenly reported to the National Center for Education Statistics that of all the students who applied in 2008, only 56 percent were admitted.

That would make K-State a selective institution. It's not.

The actual admission rate at K-State is about 98 percent, said Pat Bosco, vice president for student life." -link

HOOOOOOLY shit is that shit school easy to get into. Even CSU students get to laugh in the general direction of Kjuco-State.

I'm glad we're getting the fuck out of this conference.
