<p>macnyc - not sure exactly the nature of your qx. Tulane's Engineering Deans have stepped solidly forward, imo, to help these kids think through their options re staying or transferring. The Dean of the new College of Science and Engineering (or whatever the new name is) was the Dean of Engineering. He has reached out to his peer institutions to help pave the way for these kids. Tulane has hired a Transfer Guidance Counselor/Advisor, who is making positive contributions imo. Tulane is picking up the tab for transfer apps and travel.</p>
<p>Doesn't put the rug back under them, but it is the honorable way, and has contributed to my continuing respect for the institution.</p>
