I have family members who went to Gustavus in the 1980s. I do think retention and graduation statistics are very important indicators of student satisfaction, and I think Gustavus does pretty well by that measure. I suspect that Cornell College’s lower graduation/retention rates are probably driven by dissatisfaction with one course at a time, but I agree that a significant number may be dissatisfied with small-town midwestern life.
