at Cal Tech, the four-year graduation rate is just 19%

It is? I'd like to see some data/backup for that stat.

It would be simpler and more profitable if they could just sell diplomas.

I saw this move once. I think it’s name was Idiocracy. I thought it was for entertainment purposes only but I guess not.

19%. So the graduation rate as a percentage of the population is perhaps where it was in, say 1880 or 1950? Could be maybe...?

HL Mencken’s quote about raising black flags comes to mind.

Social Promotion comes to California’s colleges and Universities.

They ruined the K-12 system, and now are working on the collegiate level.

Simple. No one should hire any graduate of any California K-12 school, community college, or university.

Of course that’s probably what the Libs want, a large block of uneducated, unemployable voters, who will vote themselves government benefits.

Wait a minute. That’s what they already have in California and in other Lib strongholds.

If I was at Cal Tech, I’d be SUING the media for the 19% claim. That’s just insane, not to mention that they are a PRIVATE SCHOOL.

The media is, again, showing their idiocy, by using the term “Cal Tech” to mean “Students studying for Technical Degrees at California State Universities”

At a minimum, Cal Tech is owed a big-time APOLOGY.
