Says here that Indiana’s Vincennes University has the distinction of having graduated not one person among those who’ve attended for four years.
Says here that au contraire Vincennes is graduating (drum roll) 24% of such people. Although it’s not clear that this second list is based on four years of attendance. It might be six.
This is a public university, so the taxpayers of Indiana can wile away these lovely early autumn afternoons contemplating the yield on their investment.

The 0% has to be a typo.
Despite the name “university,” Vincennes is mostly a junior college that is either dealing with students planning to transfer or doing a certificate program.

I have several family members (including a doctor and a dentist) who are alums of Vincennes, so I have to say at least a couple words in its defense. As theprofessor says, it’s a residential community college, and the bulk of its students are either going to transfer to four-year institutions, or they’re doing two-year technical degrees and leaving for a job.
