I completely disagree. Colleges should be "student first." If an engineering student at GT decides he wants to transfer to USC for film school, should GT be able to keep him from enrolling in film school because they need him on a design team at GT?

Why should "what's best for the game" (i.e. what fans and alums want) dictate how individual students are treated at schools?
