Gayle Garrett, US News methodologist and one of the lead organizers of the rankings, spoke about the narrow margins between schools. "When all data was run through the education schools--research ranking model there was just a hair's breath of difference between Harvard, UCLA and Teachers College. The jump that UCLA made as compared with last year's results is due mostly to the big increase in funded research--from $20.3 to $29.8 millions-- and the consequent jump in the average per faculty member--from $594.2 to $876.9 thousands. The $29.8 million was also the largest amount of research funding reported by any education school."
She also noted that "Teachers College received the highest rating--4.7 out of a possible 5.0--of any education school in our survey of school superintendents. Only Stanford, of all the schools ranked, was able to match it."
