“College dropouts tend to be male, and give reasons such as cost, not feeling prepared, and not being able to juggle family, school and jobs”
Add the fact they are not wanted to succeed in the new world order unless they are queer.

The article really doesn’t tell the whole story. Most of the schools mentioned are extension campuses - how many students transfer to to a school’s main campus, or to a better school, after a year or two? How many students are working full-time, and only take a course or two each semester? The schools in question may well be as horrible as their graduation rates make out, but more information is needed to make an informed judgement.
Four of the ten are in my neck of the woods. From firsthand knowledge, it’s the product being spit out of the local high schools as much as anything.
Since there are precious few jobs in the Baraqqi “new normal”, it’s an expected outcome to borrow a ton of money and head off to college.
How THE HECK does a “college” have a median SAT score of 715?? If either the math or verbal SAT is below 400, that should automatically prohibit admission into an acredited college.
I’m almost positive that the stats take into account transfers out. Regardless, it would be informative, although deathly politically incorrect, to post the minority enrollment percentages and minority drop-out rates as well.
Thomas Sowell has written extensively on how many minorities are forced into schools that they are ill-equiped to handle. I’m sure this is the case here, especially in NO.
I tutored remedial math students in college... ALL athletes and ALL black. And I'm talking arithmetic.
The "soft bigotry of low expectations" rears its ugly head at every turn among liberals.
Tom Joyner said he would pay her tuition at any historically black university. Southern would qualify.
The Roach Motel - you can get in but you can’t get out.
An A to the professors who just didn’t just pass them along?
On the list....
Southern-NO, UDC, Tx Southern, Coppin St....are Black schools.....except for UDC....considered HBCUs....Historically Black Colleges and Universities.
The Ohio based schools are low because Ohio has open enrollment for college....in other words....a HS diploma and a pulse gets you in. Most states do not have open enrollment at university level
I bet Oklahoma has the same rule...with 2 schools on the list
Woo-hoo! 4 of the 11 are in Ohio. And as you know, when an Ohioan starts something he
And perhaps a realization that unemployed parents, who are also underwater in their mortgages, can no longer provide an allowance and/or tuition assistance has also opened the eyes of erstwhile scholars.
Behold the great and powerful Obama Recovery!
