"The Diner" you are thinking of is probably "The Grille." It is a hotbed for weirdos and otherwise unmentionables. I would suggest the much classier Bissett's.
I trapped you with the graduate school rankings when you said all of the US News rankings were useless. True, much of the formula comes from peer review, but rankings in professional programs include much data relating to GPA and test scores amongst other things.
You're right. Harvard didn't need US News to make a name for itself, but you better believe heads would roll in the ended up ranked 12th in the 2011 version of the rankings.
I guess we can agree to disagree on the relevance of/ability to determine rankings, but they're not going to be going away or taken any less seriously by those "who don't matter."
I guess we need to quit with all of this non-Husker talk while we're ahead before we're chased by an angry torch-wielding mob!
Oh and I don't think you need to be able to pass a swim test to graduate college (ahem...Cornell).
