Half a dozen law schools have now announced that they will no longer participate in the U.S. News & World Report education rankings, with Stanford Law School publicizing its decision late Friday night.

“In the spirit of providing useful information to prospective students and improving the ability of law schools to do their best for students, we have been one of a number of law schools who have approached U.S. News over time with concrete suggestions to improve its ranking methodology, to no avail,” Stanford Law Dean Jenny Martinez said in a statement Friday night.
