The article actually says: "8 of the 20 kids I spoke to in this year’s program said at one point or another in our conversation that they’d consider going back to college after they are done."

Which TechCrunch turned into the headline: "Is The Thiel Fellowship Program Really Just A Sabbatical From College?"

Which the HN submission turned into: "More than half the Thiel Fellows plan on returning to school"

Which looks flagrantly untruthful to me, both because "would consider"!="plan on" and "8 of the 20"!="more than half". So, flagged. Could a moderator please edit this headline to be more honest?
