As far as Mooby's comments I don't think he meant any harm, I have two close family members that went there and I kind of think of it as a party school as well but I also know a lot of great minds are there as well. I think the general public's opinion of any large state school is that it is a party school.
I don't know the numbers but I am willing to bet more folks go there for a year or two party like crazy and drop out vs. those that actually graduate. that is a true statement probably for 90 percent of large state colleges.

Absolutely true, although not at the main campus. There is a whole farm system of branch campuses that do not post very high graduation rates. People who make it straight to the main campus out of high school tend to be pretty good students though.
