    United States National Research Council (NRC) has ranked various academic departments in the U.S. in 1983 and 1995 respectively. When will the organization rank the departments again?

    		I sure can't find any definitive plans...I have e-mailed the NRC and asked them. If they respond...I will post.

    		Just received a response to my 06-04-06 e-mail:

    The "rankings" project is ongoing. The National Academies are building a database that has quantitative information from universities about
    their doctoral programs. This database will allow for program comparisons in a wide variety of areas. The project will be completed by 2007. We're also working on a book of analytical essays on the types of studies that could be conducted with the data mentioned above. The book will be available in 2008.
