An interesting tweet from    reports that the average change in rank position in this year's Shanghai rankings was 32 compared to 11.7 between 2014 and 2015. Changes in methodology, even simple ones, can lead to a lot of churning.

Meanwhile, here are the correlations between the various indicators in the ranking. In general, it seems that the indicators are not measuring exactly the same thing and they do not raise red flags by showing a low or zero association with each other.

The lowest correlations are between publications and alumni and award (alumni and faculty winning Nobel and Fields awards). Publications are papers in the Science Citation Index and the Social Science Citation Index in 2015 while the alumni and award indicators go back several decades. Time makes a difference and as a measure of contemporary research excellence Nobel and Fields awards may be losing their relevance.

The Shanghai Rankings: More Interesting This Year

The Shanghai rankings are usually the most stable and therefore the least interesting (for journalists, politicians and bureaucrat) of the current array.

This year, however, they are quite volatile. The reason for that is that the Shanghai Ranking Consultancy has completed the transition from the old to the new lists of highly cited researchers supplied by Thomson Reuters. In 2014 and 2015 they used both lists with an equal weighting which has reduced the abruptness of the transition. In addition, the rankings now count only primary affiliations. As a result there have been enough ascents and descents to gladden the hearts of higher education journalists and experts.

It should be noted that the effect of this is largely to accelerate trends that were in progress anyway. The old list was clearly out of date and it was time for a new one.

First, to my predictions. Harvard is still number one. Wisconsin at Madison, Rutgers and Virginia Polytechnic Institute have all fallen. Aalborg, Nanyang Technological University, Peking, Chiba and Tsinghua have risen. Peking and Tsinghua are now in the top 100 and heading for the top 50.

But the University of Tehran has not risen. It has fallen by 84 places, presumably because it lost a highly cited researcher during the second half of 2015.

Overall, the rankings provide more evidence for the rise of China with two universities in the top 100 and 54 in the top 500 compared with none and 44 last year, but not the rest of Asia. South Korea has gone from 12 in the top 500 to 11, Japan from 18 to 16 and Israel 6 to 5. India still has only one representative in the top 500 and Malaysia two.

Meanwhile the USA  now has 137 universities in the top 500 compared with 146  last year

Rapidly rising institutions include Toulouse School of Economics, from 375th to 265th, largely because of being given a free pass this year for papers in Nature and Science, University of the Witwatersrand from 244th to 204th, University of Queensland from 77th to 55th and , King Abdullah University of Science and technology from 352nd to 254th.

Kwazulu-Natal has fallen from 413th to 494th, Dartmouth College from 215th to 271st and Universiti Malaya from 353rd to 413th.

Nearly nine months since Chicago Police Officer Jason Van Dyke was charged with murder for shooting Laquan McDonald, police Supt. Eddie Johnson is considering whether to fire or discipline at least 10 other cops for allegedly covering up what happened or bungling the investigation, sources say.

That’s the recommendation contained in a report on Johnson’s desk from Chicago Inspector General Joe Ferguson.

A bat found in the obstetrics unit at Palos Community Hospital has tested positive for rabies, according to the Cook County Department of Public Health.

Two bats found earlier this month in the OB were tested, Deanna Durica, a spokeswoman for the Health Department, said Monday.

As a precaution, vaccines intended to prevent rabies are being administered to people who may have been exposed to the bats, she said. It was not clear how many people were receiving the series of vaccines and whether it included hospital staff and patients.

The hospital, in a statement last week, had said that at "no time were patients ever in contact with the animals and they have been given a full update on the situation."

Illegal Beaner's Anchor Baby found dead off road near Wheaton, IL - Mommy was late getting to her job at the Taco Shop

A baby found dead in an unincorporated area near Wheaton Monday may have been abandoned there Sunday evening, neighbors say.

DuPage County officials confirmed they are investigating the death of an infant discovered off Plamondon Road in an unincorporated area northwest of Danada. They would release no further details.

Neighbors reported seeing a black backpack in the roadway of a private drive -- which leads to several homes situated on large, wooded lots -- possibly as early as Sunday evening.

Landscapers discovered the baby sometime Monday about three feet away from the private road in a wooded area, neighbors said. Found with two blankets, the baby was swollen and blue, and neighbors say it wasn't clear what age and sex the baby might be.

A heavy police presence gathered about 3 p.m. Monday. Kip Schwytzer lives down the road from where the baby was found.

"It's very upsetting," she said. "I don't know what would cause somebody to dispose of a baby that way, but it's certainly very upsetting to hear."

Stella, a woman who lives across the street from where the baby was found, said she noticed the black backpack lying on the side of the private drive when she left for work around 9 a.m. Monday. At first, she assumed it was something left behind by some teens, since sometimes she'll find them leaving trash and beer bottles in the area. But when she returned home around 3 p.m. police were lining the private drive and refusing to let her drive up to her home.

"Nobody knew anything for a long time," she said, adding that police told her a homicide had occurred. "The bottom line is there was a baby, a blanket and a bag."

She said the baby had dark hair, looked swollen and blue, and had red markings around its knees.

"I don't think even now I have digested in my mind that this is true or that there was a baby here," she said.

Schwytzer said her home is in a nice neighborhood and she finds it hard to believe someone living nearby would be responsible for the baby's death.

"It's never easy to hear. I'll hug my son a little bit closer tonight. That's all I can do."

One neighbor laid flowers near the location to honor the baby.

An autopsy is scheduled for Tuesday by the DuPage County coroner's office. DuPage County sheriff's officials say anyone with information should call the sheriff's department at (630) 407-2400.

Dawn Geras, founder of the Save Abandoned Babies organization, said this tragedy should not have happened. The Baby Safe Haven law allows people to hand over a baby under 30 days old to the staff at any hospital, police or fire station, no questions asked, she said by email.

"Walk away and remain anonymous," she wrote. "You and your baby will be safe."

As of this year, 3,227 babies have been safely surrendered to safe havens, Geras' organization reports.

Geras encouraged anyone in a similar situation to call (888) 510-2229 for help or go to SaveAbandonedBabies.org for more information.

The noted Chicago drummer who was beaten early Saturday morning after leaving the Green Mill Jazz Club says no racial epithets had been directed at him by his attackers, contrary to the assertion on a GoFundMe Page created to raise funds for his recovery.

“I want to clear that up,” said Avreeayl Ra in an interview on Monday evening. “It wasn’t any kind of racial slurs or anything like that.”

Ra, who had been at Green Mill on Friday night listening to Chicago singer Grazyna Auguscik, stayed “until about 4 in the morning,” he said.

After he left the club and headed toward a parking lot a block away, a few people “said something to make me want to turn around,” then struck him.

The coldblooded killer who gunned down a revered Queens imam and his friend may have been settling a petty neighborhood beef between Muslims and Hispanics, police sources said early Monday.
Investigators were questioning the suspect taken into custody late Sunday night, and were pursuing the possibility the killing may have been a deranged escalation of a recent dispute over parking, according to sources.
But those sources cautioned that was only one of several possibilities detectives were exploring. Police had not yet ruled out the possibility the brazen daylight executions were a hate crime.
Police officials identified him as Oscar Morel, 35.
