The Caltech graduation rate back then said to be on the order of 66%.

The saying at Frosh camp was 'Look to your left. Look to your right. One of you is not going to graduate'.

66% sounds about right. People left for all sorts of reasons, not just flunking out.

I wonder what has changed since then to so drastically change the graduation rate.
