[QUOTE="jacketup, post: 269253, member: 630"] You must have gone to a different GT than I went to. When I was at Tech in the 1970's, there was close to a 50% freshman attrition rate. Tech was proud of it. Goodbye GT, Hello Viet Nam. There was no first year charity--or any other year. GT is not more rigorous than when I went there. Now GT brags about a high retention rate. For 2011 freshmen, 95% after the freshman year and 88% after 4 years. (Source: GT website). The numbers have been steadily increasing over the years. I get sick of the "we can't recruit because of academics" argument. We have more and easier majors and grade inflation as compared to the late 80's when Ross and Cremins were having success at recruiting. . And no GT coach has been more demanding than Boss Ross.
