Cornell Owns the Goldwater

Goldwater Scholarships -- fostering outstanding undergraduate work in the natural and engineering sciences -- were announced today, and Cornell absolutely owned the competition, along with MIT. Each university is allowed to nominate four students, and all four Cornell nominees were chosen for the honor.

Below, I've compiled a quick ranking of Goldwater Scholarships by school in 2009 for select schools:

Cornell 4
MIT 4
CalTech 3
Michigan 3
Northwestern 3
Princeton 3
Rice 3
Berkeley 2
Chicago 2
Dartmouth 2
Emory 2
Harvard 2
Vanderbilt 2
Yale 2
Johns Hopkins 1
WUSTL 1
Brown 0
Penn 0
Duke 0

'Tis a shame we couldn't have settled the score of the Bemidji State hockey game with Goldwater Scholarships on Sunday.
