This article focuses on the analysis of performative effects of rankings on university quality, showing the main results of a qualitative study on a sample of Chilean universities. From a sociological perspective and assimilating the presence of a fact-totem, a critical analysis of university rankings is presented in regards to its production and release, showing the subscribed quality model. The article describes the effects the rankings have on institutions and how the modeling of the current concept of quality operates, through an agency network which they are part of, along with the media and representatives of the participating universities, whom are ascribed a performative role. Finally, following the metaphor of imagining the ideal university, elements excluded from the current definition of university quality are identified and offered as a new reference, considering aspects such as the idea of community, improved teaching, and relevant research among others.
