“Chicago now has a massive admissions machine sucking in 35k+ apps - but for what? All we have to show, apparently, is a 7 point increase in the grad rate, and an SAT percentile that went from the 98th percentile to the 99th percentile.”
7% means that theres:
100-125 people every year dont end up with a job at Macdonalds.
100-125 less people every year who are in danger of severe depression.
100-125 less every year who dislike their university experience so much that they market the university negatively wherever they go.
100-125 more alumni created every year who are comparatively more employable, happier, love the school more, and are better ambassadors of university’s brand
