Kommentar: Da mir leider kein Kommentar einfällt, ich aber dennoch gern etwas Tröstendes schreiben möchte, übernehme ich den Kommentar der Präsidentin der canadischen McGill University, Heather Monroe-Blum:
"It is important to remember that there are nearly 10,000 universities worldwide so even to be included on THE-QS list ... is a remarkable achievement." Es gebe fast 10.000 Universitäten auf der Welt. Überhaupt auf die Liste zu kommen, sei deshalb schon eine bemerkenswerte Leistung.
