I can think of far more productive ways of getting students to do better that don't involve marketing campaigns...

Yeah, it is a California thing but they pressure everyone to get out asfast as possible. I was a victim of the ugly side of that. Made some poor choices to cope with it.

I do find this message very funney though.

They aren't saying anything new. What they aren't really clear about (which would have been a reason for me to have left the state) is that California interpretes years differently than other states. We go by actuall units rather than by actual years or a combination of the two. This severely impacts students who take APs or get community college credit before comming to UCR but are not "transfers."

But your right, there hasn't been a change since at least 1998. Point taken and duly noted.
