Did F. Scott Fitzgerald drop out of Princeton university?

F. Scott Fitzgerald did not drop out of Princeton University. He actually left the university in 1917, but not due to academic failure.

Here's why:

* World War I: Fitzgerald left Princeton to join the US Army. He felt a patriotic duty to serve his country during the war.

* Health Issues: Fitzgerald also suffered from health problems during his time at Princeton, which may have contributed to his decision to leave.

While he didn't graduate from Princeton, Fitzgerald was a bright and talented student who excelled in literature and writing. His time at Princeton undoubtedly influenced his later literary work, particularly his novel *This Side of Paradise*, which was inspired by his experiences there.
