"Officials at the University of Missouri-Kansas City’s business school knowingly submitted false data when applying for rankings and awards from national organizations, according to a report released Friday by the University of Missouri System."
However, report found that the ranking that the school appears in -- namely, it was ranked as the top university in the world for innovation management research by the Journal of Product Innovation Management -- was deserved, even considering the faulty data submitted.

The original report was down by Pricewaterhousecoopers. Here's the PDF:
