The Journal Strikes Again

Today's Wall Street Journal has a dynamite article entitled "Beyond Berkeley." In it, they espouse a theory long-believed to be true by the U Sphere team: there is a new trend toward selectivity at many public universities in the country.

Mentioned in the article are places like Binghamton, the University of Oklahoma, and the University of Delaware -- three that have become much more selective in recent years.

It's a great read if not a little scary -- but the upshot is that students may have to cast their nets a little wider when applying this year, too.
