If you read further, after it states that the rate for Florida is 80% it states:

The NCAA's figure for Florida nearly doubled the 42 percent rate from the federal report.

Having dealt with Florida graduates as an instructor at the U.S. Army Field Artillery School, I would tend to believe the lower rate. The only thing dumber than a 2nd Lieutenant from a Florida school was one from a school in Texas. And unfortunately I am serious about that comment. We would sit around before a course started to see who was stuck with officers from those two states.

You sound like John Kerry. OTOH you're probably an enlisted guy who hates all officers with a southern accent.

I am sorry we have people in our military with such attitudes.
