"I personally believe that the low graduation rates are a good thing. It shows that schools are requiring standards of their students, and if the students aren't putting enough effort in, they should not get a diploma."
So you are saying that the University of memphis has higher standards than Vanderbilt? My guess would be no.
My university did not fair well on the list, people at the university have known this for years. Attending the university, I can see why we do not have a high grad rate, many do not belong there at all.
Not saying they are stupid, it is just I can tell they have no interest in college at this time in their life, when the parties get boring, the upper division classes start getting hard, etc, they will drop. For many it seems their parents pushed into it all the while they rather be working or going off learning something else like being a carpenter or a beautician.
A guy I was in class with last semester that graduated actually prefered to be a heavy equipment operator and scored an entry level job operating a skidloader at a nursery.
