Re: Nothing changes
They (the management) were all for cancelling the Electronics A level college course I attended after the first year because one student dropped out. I managed to wangle an unemployed (self taught) friend of mine onto it by the pair of us blatantly lying about his qualifications: he had none so we had to! The two lecturers and the other students were all in on it. The former because of their pay, the latter because we'd have been stuffed for getting into university.
You don't just cancel a course just because the numbers have dropped below an arbitrary threshold!
Needless to say, that kind of shady management got the college where it is today. College -> Poly -> University.
