One simple question I have – if they have the units to graduate, which they must to go into the portal, and want to move towards a masters do they have to get in to one of the Stanford graduate schools?
Could this exitus to the portal be in part because some haven’t gotten in but they may be able to elsewhere? I don’t know just asking.
Everybody assumes it’s for some dissatisfaction with the program etc. But I suspect there are other possibilities. Hell maybe some of them don’t like Stanford. So yeah it’s a problem.
The way I get over the problem is to make damn sure I stop redshirting freshman. Play them. Having them raring to go for a 5th year somewhere else doesn’t make a whole lot of sense. And frankly while Stanford occasionally gets the benefit – Scarlet being the best example- it’s not gonna happen very often because most are not gonna be able to get in.
