Will Harvard drop in national university rankings?

If Harvard has a lower ranking in the first U.S. News & World Report Best National University Rankings released after Issuance than its ranking as of Issuance, the market resolves to Yes. Resolution is based solely on the numerical rank assigned to Harvard — moving from an unshared rank to a tied rank at the same number does not constitute a drop. If Harvard is no longer listed in the rankings, the market resolves to Yes. If the rank is unchanged, the market resolves to No.
