Huh? First of all op said it’s not a liberal arts college. Second, I went to Wes and can literally remember only two  people who took an extra year or semester to graduate. One did a study abroad on his own and the credits didn’t transfer well and the other was editor in chief of the paper and took a super light load in order to manage the workload of putting out the paper.[/quote]

Yea, well you obviously didn’t know a lot of your classmates because according to Wes’s own website the four year graduation rate has never even hit 90 percent and typically is closer to 80 percent.  So lots and lots of Wes students aren’t graduating in four years.

Can you not read your own link correctly? That's not what this data says. I'm not going to waste my time explaining it.[/quote]

The data is crystal clear.  There hasn’t been a single year in the history of Wesleyan where only two students didn’t graduate in four years.  Even accounting for transfers and drop outs after the first year.  There’s nothing to “explain.”  It’s right there in your face.

Wesleyan has a very good graduation rate, but it is not nearly as close to perfect as you believe it is.  No school is.  [/quote]
