"Pressured to drop out for the economic gain of the professors?"
Give me a break. Taking a break from Stanford undergrad for a few years with a few awesome peers to run a startup happens a few times a year, if not more lately. Some non-trivial portion of the CS majors join to start a company. Timing often dictates market opportunity. This seems like an amazing one - faculty want to join, you're backed by the president Stanford university.
An absolutely fantastic opportunity that the students owe to their luck of having gotten into Stanford.
