*This ranking was computed in January of the year cited,
based on data from a survey sent out in the fall of the previous year.
** The school was mistakenly left out of the 2006 survey because of an
error in interpreting data from the National Science Foundation's WebCASPAR
database. Rankings from the 2002 survey appear.
