David Levin, cofundador de la famosa red de escuelas intermedias charter “KIPP” de Estados Unidos, que fomentan el estudio intensivo por parte de estudiantes de bajos recursos logrando que obtengan muy altas calificaciones para ingresar a la alta secundaria y a la universidad, encontró que sus ex alumnos tendían a abandonar los estudios superiores graduándose solamente 33% al cabo de los 4 años del primer título universitario.
