Am I missing something? Or was there a misprint of the number of colleges surveyed for the Chronicles report on "Great Colleges to Work for 2008".

The article says only "89 Colleges and Universities" were surveyed.

If that's so, I don't understand why they're making such a big deal of the results.

Given the parameters of the research, a sample of 89 institutions is okay.  I read this piece and the other one that appeared in CHE and was left wanting more information.  I will out myself - I was in this sample and completed the questionnaire so I know what was asked (either that or they had a very similar survey going on at the same time).  Perhaps they will be selling a complete report, but I found the information in the two pieces I read less than complete.  Maybe I missed a full version paper out there...
