Geez - what's your beef with Villanova? It's definitely a good school.
I'm not saying US News is the end all be all, but it's a pretty decent ranking system for schools.
Villanova has a pretty good business school, which is what it's known for. Also, good engineering and law schools. You can also go to art school, nursing or professional studies at Villanova. I would say that's pretty comprehensive offerings. Plus, it has a top ranked basketball team.
Not that I really care much, but US News only started recently adding catholic private schools to the rankings a few years back, which is why it suddenly popped up when it wasn't there before. Still, it deserves a high ranked spot regardless of it being a catholic private school.
