I definitely agree it's an exception but the more blogs like TechCrunch publicize people dropping out (Thiel Fellows, Penn students from a post yesterday), the more prominent (and viable) it appears. The best option is to run the business at school, leverage the vast array of (usually free) resources on campus, and graduate with a startup AND a degree.

Plus the untapped knowledge from a community of like-minded peers. Not to mention the available support from professors, many of whom have walked this path many times before.
