PSU's Electrical Engineering -- 9th??

PSU's Electrical Engineering program was ranked ninth in the nation by the latest US World News and Reports.

How did that happen? I've been through the ECE program, and I know it can't be on par with MIT or Stanford (which also ranked in the top ten). There are a few really good teachers, but the whole department needs a good shake-up and a new Computer Engineering curriculum. I fear the ranking will cause the department to stagnate. Of course, someone majoring in Electrical Engineering may have a different opinion.
