So what do you recommend? They drive up admissions standards and then have an almost empty class size?



That's exactly what I recommend.

The average incoming ACT at Ole Miss is a 24, but pretty much anybody with an 18 can get in (again, due to state policy and not Ole Miss' standards). If they could bump that minimum ACT to something like a 20 or 21, they would be able to weed out a lot of the frickups who have no business in higher ed anyway, and you wouldn't have "an almost empty class size" at all.

It also bears mentioning that ~50% of Ole Miss incoming freshmen graduate in four years. So many people fail out or take too long to get degrees because they, frankly, should be at a community college or vocational school.

Clearly Ole Miss' fault and a sign that we are providing the worst education for students.
