Some people drop out b/c they can't handle the workload. Some drop out for personal reasons. I'm going to say it's mostly because people fail out, not voluntarily drop out.

SUNY estimates 6 people will drop out by graduation. 4 for personal reasons and 2 unwillingly. I believe those are the #s.

Interesting. I'm not sure if SCO does an estimate like that. My class has lost three people and it doesn't look like we'll lose any more.. I hope not anyway.

So far we have had one leave for personal reasons. Hopefully no others but time will tell.
