This investigation by The Gazette reveals that more than 18 percent of students graduating from the "University of Iowa’s prestigious Tippie College of Business" have "at least one non-traffic criminal conviction." The percentage of convictions possessed by students of the Business College is 6 percent higher than any other University of Iowa undergraduate.
