My roommate, assuming it was meant for me, was doing poorly but did not fail out. He got caught in the federal financial aid Pell cuts of the early 1980s and could no longer afford it.
His parents were divorced, six kids, raised in a lousy neighborhood and just did not have the HS rigor nor the academic coping skills that my kids take for granted. I didn’t mean to imply he had withdrawn the way that Johnathan did.
