PULLMAN, Wash. —
A recent study at Washington State University found that freshmen who were enrolled in science and engineering programs, were members of fraternities or sororities or were varsity athletes had higher graduation rates than other students.
The study was of 6,000 WSU students who enrolled as freshmen in Pullman in the fall of either 2002 or 2003.
