| Abstract | This paper critically examines the Philosophical Gourmet Report’s rankings and advice for students interested in feminist philosophy and philosophy of race. It argues that the Report lacks adequate representation from feminist philosophers and scholars of color among its advisors and evaluators. Thus, its recommendations misrepresent the landscape of these fields and fail to identify the programs where students could best pursue them. The paper contrasts the Report’s limited engagement with emerging subfields to the more inclusive approach taken by the National Research Council rankings. It calls on the profession to assess rankings claims more rigorously and for the Report itself to acknowledge its lack of expertise on feminist philosophy and disclaim any ability to advise students seeking to specialize in that area.
