Interesting Data

Postby Pony4Life » Tue Nov 21, 2000 4:08 pm

I borrowed this link from someone who posted it on mm.com.
<A HREF="http://www.dallasnews.com/sports_day/colleges/football/219973_21gradrates.html" TARGET=_blank>http://www.dallasnews.com/sports_day/colleges/football/219973_21gradrates.html</A>

But check out the chart at the bottom of the article. It compares graduation rates for all schools in the Big 12 and other Texas schools like us. In the "all school" and "all student-athletes" sections, we trail only Rice.

SMU is to be commended for maintaining its lofty academic standards, and realizing that it is an academic institution first and foremost.

Commended for great academics...yes. But I think we should be well rounded. How about a good football team and a percentage point or two lower on that grad rate? Is that too much to ask?
