Ben just alerted me to a new evaluation of theology departments in the UK. According to The Good University Guide, Durham's Theology and Religion department is rated second, bested only by Cambridge. Interestingly, St. Andrews is third, and Oxford is tied with Nottingham for fourth.

Ben explains, "For the non-UKers, the RAE (Research Assessment Exercise) is a national ranking program that analyses each department. I think the major grading factor is the number of publications by each faculty member. The Tarriff has to do with the A-level scores by incoming students. Durham just increased theirs to AAB (from ABB, I think?) Destinations is their assessment of those employed after graduation."
