Sounds like the beginning of a joke where everyone walks into a bar, right? But instead of walking in (maybe to a happy hour), these folks all walked out-- of college, that is. The triumvirate of Coursekit, the potential Blackboard-killer, has opted to skip out on the rest of dear old Penn because they raised a cool million for their start-up.
Being the next big thing in the tech world is cool and all, but we're not sure we'd give up college so quickly-- two out of the three team members are only rising juniors! To follow your dreams or bask in the glory that is adolescence: that is the (million-dollar) question.
