I was thinking of good but unheard of Universities like Georgetown and George Washington.

Surprising those wouldn't have made the list if they didn't (I didn't bother to read the list due to the inherent pointlessness of such lists).   Both are well-respected universities.

They are on there, Ranked 210 (GW) and 211 (Georgetown).

Whereas the degree mill which awarded me my B.A. was ranked 121 (UC Riverside).

That just doesn't seem right at all.
