University ranking based on the contribution to society

The Washington Monthly's 2009 national university college rankings.

They rate schools based on their contribution to the public good in three broad categories: Social Mobility (recruiting and graduating low-income students), Research (producing cutting-edge scholarship and PhDs), and Service (encouraging students to give something back to their country).

And the ranking?

1. UC Berkeley
2. UC San Diego
3. UCLA
4. Stanford (4), the only private institution in the top 10.
...
10. UC Davis
11. Harvard
12. MIT
...
16. UC Riverside (16)
...
21. Santa Barbara
...
Six UC schools in the top 25.
