Cal State San Bernardino has once again been listed among the top colleges and universities in the western United States by U.S. News & World Report, as it continues to be recognized as one of the nation’s best colleges from other magazine and education services, which include the Princeton Review, Forbes and Money Magazine. The U.S. News & World Report rankings, which are considered one of the most influential and anticipated annual recognitions for colleges and universities throughout the nation, ranked CSUSB 69th among all western universities for regional public institutions that provide a full range of undergraduate and master’s degree programs. The U.S. News & World Report rankings were announced in the 2016 America’s Best Colleges guidebook, which was released online on Sept. 9. The West region includes institutions from 15 states: Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Oregon, Texas, Utah, Washington and Wyoming. The rankings are available at the U.S. News website at www.usnews.com. The U.S. News rankings focus on academic excellence, with schools ranked up to 16 measures of academic quality. The rankings emphasize outcomes, with graduation and retention rates carrying the most weight in the methodology at 30 percent. The top schools all have high six-year graduation rates and strong freshman retention rates.

A residence shows visible damage from flooding, mud and debris following severe winter storms that began Dec. 23, which brought heavy rain and debris flows to mountain and high desert communities across San Bernardino County. This week, the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors approved recovery-related fee waivers to help eligible property owners repair and rebuild as response and long-term recovery efforts continue.
