College Dropout is a burger chain in Melbourne, Australia. They are known, in-part, for having made international headlines after being unsuccessfully sued by the American musician Kanye West for intellectual property infringement.
The chain is named after West's album The College Dropout, which they did not get his permission or endorsement to use. The restaurant uses the Dropout Bear as a mascot, and has items named for other things in West's career, such as his album and song titles. For a brief period, they sold burgers named after celebrities that dropped out of college as a result of West's lawsuit. As of 2025, they have returned to branding styled around West.
