Education Week has unveiled the 2022 Rick Hess Straight Up (RHSU) Edu-Scholar Public Influence Rankings, which ranks 200 of the nation's top university-based scholars who had the biggest influence on educational practice and policy in the last year. Four Brown University Department of Education professors are named and were chosen from a set of more than 20,000 eligible scholars:
- Susanna Loeb, Director of the Annenberg Institute for School Reform, Professor of International and Public Affairs, Professor of Education
- Matthew A. Kraft, Associate Professor of Education and Economics
- Lindsay C. Page, Annenberg Associate Professor of Education Policy

To make it on the list each scholar was scored in nine categories including their Google scholar score, book points, highest Amazon ranking, syllabus points, newspaper mentions, education press mentions, web mentions, congressional record mentions, and Twitter score.
