US News Rankings 2008 - 2019

We have found a great way to illustrate progression of schools through the US News rankings over the last 10 years. Welcome your suggestions for how to improve this presentation and make it easier to navigate. Some worthwhile comments:

Haas has not moved since 2008... really, not a mistake.
If there is no school name on a box, it means there are multiple schools sharing that spot
Click on a school to highlight it's path through the years
Use the filter to isolate any single school or exclude
Why are so many colors are similar? We tried to match the school's official colors here... tried.

Enjoy! Welcome feedback for improvement!

Very eye catching visuals! Need to try this software out. But interesting representation. But still think Columbia should be higher than Haas. HSW are in definite competition from Booth to make it HSWB.

Love progression of Haas. And FYI you can click on schools' name and that school will be highlighted!

Yes, that was the first thing that caught my attention. Although bb did mention it in #3 in his first post.

I also just discovered that if you press CTRL while you click on a school/box, you can select multiple schools and isolate them.
Here is Yale vs. Darden for example. I am loving this more and more :-)

I have just updated the chart to include TOP 50 - Third Post (Kept the original top 20 intact) - take a look at the craziness that goes on in the SUB-30 category. It is all over the place. I wonder if US news should have normalized their rankings somehow (including the Stern drop off) in such a way that rankings cannot be changed more than 5 spots per year... I am not a rankings expert but that would make my chart a lot more readable!

OWEN - from 44 to 22 in 10 years - that's probably the best improvement of ANY school out there.
Marshall - a reverse trend can be observed

How come Haas is not part of M7 when it is constantly ranked above Columbia in the past 10 years? M7 is for private schools only?

M7 is not about pure ranking places. It is formed from seven schools

-Harvard Business School

-Stanford Graduate School of Business

-Wharton School of Business

-MIT Sloan School of Business

-Northwestern Kellogg School of Business

-University of Chicago Booth School of Business

-Columbia University of Business

Hi bb,
Would you be updating this with the 2019 rankings? Also, could you please share the source data with me as well.

Thank you all!
We are working on the 2019 update. Should have it within a few days - Vyshak has been gracious enough to lend his help with updating the Tableau graph (it is beyond my skill level)

WooHoo! Vyshak has updated the historic rankings with the 2019 data. You can see it with the circles.
(We still have the Top 20 List with only old list but will update that soon).

Thank you!
