Vanderbilt University ranks 18th in the nation for best places of higher learning; Go 'Doores!

Here's to the "City on a Hill" named Vanderbilt University.

U.S.. News & World Report magazine just ranked the school 18th best in the nation in its latest college rankings.

These are the vitals:

18. Vanderbilt University

Nashville, TN
2007 Total Enrollment

2008-2009 Tuition and Fees

Topping the list were Ivy League schools of Harvard and Princeton, besides MIT. Vanderbilt ranked just below Notre Dame, which came in at 17th.

That's heady company, and something that the state of Tennessee and city of Nashville should even more recognize as an incredible asset and treasure from which to recruit the best progressive, political and sociological minds.
