there was an audible gap in the crowd as students looked around during yesterday's graduation ceremony

I think we all thought there were way more of us tbh!

this isn't public but stanford CS degrees dropped by 42% YoY. Berkeley down 61%*

only 260 degrees conferred.

you can rule out:
1. major impaction/capping - stanford doesn't do this
2. class size - this was an abnormally large class (2k+)

any theories? my thoughts below
