Just how long are they keeping this thing up!? Don't polls usually have an ending time?

Of course, polls usually also don't let you vote an infinite number of times either. (Not saying I did, just that there's no mechanism for preventing it, which is idiotic.)

Polls close Jan 31st. At this point, the numbers are set and we've 'lost'. Apparently, we were the 'best', but now we're only 'second best'.

These rankings are very meaningful and official and don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

I hope we don't have to participate in this charade next year. It's degrading.

Although UMich is still taking it _quite_ seriously.

UMich isnt taking it seriously, the company making money off of the blog is.

They are also linking directly to a URL that votes for them.

http://www.usnews.com/poll/extPollResults.php3?pollId=48&optionId=6&pop=1&expiration=1201842000

That's the URL that automatically votes for Wesleying.
