Two weeks after the announcement that former Vice President Joe Biden will join Penn as a professor, administrators, professors and politically minded students alike are still confused about the nature of his role at the University.

Well we know that Uncle Joe would be a “hands-on” kind of teacher.

Old Joe will probably be there interviewing himself about how wonderful he was as Vice President.

Having Joe Biden employed as a Professor only proves how destroyed our institutions of”Higher Learning”have become.
