It’s true, folks–Berkeley kids are quite the studious bunch
. According to the California Dropout Research Project (no, we didn’t make up the name) of UC Santa Barbara, our city’s schools boasted the best ratios of dropouts to graduates in a study of 17 cities in the state.
The worst ratio, on the other hand, hails from Stockton; its 2006-07 class will apparently cost the rest of us $476 million over the decades to come, as it was comprised of a greater number of dropouts than graduates.
What can we say? Berkeley’s clearly a breeding ground for academic drive … or maybe just nerd-dom. Must be something in the water.
