ppl who go to NYU, what is the truth behind this rumor that NYU drops out a certain percentage of its class after a semester or so?

You would think you are in good position and then one day security would grab you like a vilian out of lecture, call you a failure in front of everyone, and carry you out kicking and screaming.
Well this year they changed it. Taxes have gone up, energy cost are out of control, and faculty want better benefits. So this year if you have less than a 2.8 gpa they will kick you out. I heard they want to kick out atleast 137 students from the class of 2009 and then replace them with higher paying international students.
Its darwinism at its best and only the strong survive.
