I feel that my question may have been misunderstood. Our Retention Basic is about school retention. What I meant to ask was more along the lines of, when a college is trying to establish themselves, which would be more beneficial in the long run of the institution. Is it better to try and keep a larger quantity of students enrolled in the school by giving them a lesser quality of work (which appeals to the slackers), or would it be more benificial in the long run by maybe estabalishing a more challenged program which appeals to the more committed student. I have observed in the past two years that you will lose the slacker if the structure contains a little higher quality of study, and you will also lose the more committed student when the program has little or no challanging structure.
