       | The list under "A Wider Diversity of Bachelors Degrees" presents

       | of Technology) - IIT Kanpur, Madras, and Bombay (in that order).

       | I didn't realize that the contrast between IITs and other
       | universities was so stark that none of the rest of them made it
       | anywhere close. Is it an artifact of this being laggy data -
       | since it's about professors who've since done graduate and PhD
       | programs, and so the undergraduate data being from several years
       | ago - or is it still the case that there's no close competition
       | to IITs? Put another way, in 10 years' time, is there another
       | university that might make it to the list that's not an IIT?

       | its amazing to me how stable the list of 'best' CS schools over
       | the years
       | 
       | The sub-genres of CS have radically changed over the years ,
       | there often is no overlap between them , i.e. computer security
       | vs computer graphics vs quantum computing , yet the top schools
       | remain the top schools
