The truly sad thing about these numbers if I read the article correctly was that it measured graduation rate within SIX YEARS of admission. Unbelievable, although some of the bigger programs probably have defections due to players turning pro. -- Fordham Rams Basketball Message Board

These numbers are voodoo accounting. Plus, the eternal chciken and the egg like question. Is it more morally and ethically correct to not give a kid a degree who doesnt earn it or is it worse to pass a kid through and give him a degree he/she does not deserve? Sometimes a higher graduation rate might be more of a problem. (NT) -- ant hill, Wed March 16, 2005 17:59:10
