Making A Difference Colleges

Some students spend their collegiate career trying to make a difference in the world. We applaud them!

Inside College recently named 63 colleges that make a difference in the world, from Miriam Weinstein's book Making A Difference Colleges. According to Weinstein's website, she has been "researching and directing thousands of committed young people to truly green colleges since 1992." Now THAT, my friends, is expertise.

Colleges that make a difference are large and small, public and private. There is a heavy concentration of schools in traditionally green havens like Oregon, Vermont and Washington, but there are a ton of other schools throughout the country.

We've got the full list in alphabetical order.

What do you think? Any surprises?

Harvard and Columbia have each produced, from the ranks of their undergraduates, more Nobel Laureates than any other schools except Trinity College, Cambridge, in the U.K. That ought to count as "making a difference."

No UC Berkeley?!! Split the atom, internet, tech companies, social innovation, more Nobel Laureates than any other institution and it doesn't make this list? Really?

Berea College is a great school. Interesting that there were barely any southern Universities.

Interesting that Duke and DukeEngage weren't considered. http://chronicle.com/article/Talent-Knows-No-Borders/129936/

Yeah, the hundreds of thousands of Foxxon employees would like to thank Reed for having an impact on Steve Jobs.

Really? I would venture to guess that most Reedies oppose sweatshop labor like that at Foxconn. Jobs dropped out in the first year anyway.
