The Harvard Crimson last week announced that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton would receive the Radcliffe Medal on May 25 at the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study....

Lizabeth Cohen, the dean of the Radcliffe Institute, noted the award to Clinton was being made “in recognition of her accomplishments in the public sphere as a champion for human rights, as a skilled legislator, and as an advocate for global American leadership.”...

Hillary Clinton never did anything in her life. When she was Sec of State, her stooges screwed up everything they touched. Her biggest list of accomplishments is the Hillary Kill List. And Whitewater was her only real job.

Dear old Penn, the "southernmost" Ivy, is no better, sucking up to Joe Biden and totally dissing its ONLY alumni to have garnered the American presidency...

Wait, I looked it up — it wasn’t Penn; it was Lehigh University.
