Seniors want traditions beyond football parties. Drake football begins quest for fifth straight PFL title. 2 Drake ranks second overall Frances Starkey news editor Drake ranked second overall of 123 universities in the Midwest and received the top score for academic reputation, according to U.S. News and World Report's annual rankings released on Aug. 20. Whether or not those numbers are meaningful, they do have an impact, for better or for worse, on people's enrollment decisions, so our gain in the rankings may benefit us in admissions next year. We're very pleased to have that recognition.
