Pyramid system at Northwestern?

Students can get academic probation if their grades are very low (I know someone who got on probation for that reason), but I am fairly confident that there is no scheme to chop off the bottom x percent of the class. If anything, Northwestern Engineering is very accommodating of all students that want to do engineering. The person I know who was on probation is still an engineering student at NU, for instance.
