Graduated HS in 1968. Since I had/have a good grade average and very high IQ (160+) and SAT (~1100) I was offered a full scholarship to PSU.
My dad who was very ill at the time tore the application up while in his hospital bed. He lectured me about how PSU was a very good school but basically turned out elitist, snobbish, leftist automatons.
He didn’t want me to be one of them. He wanted me to go to a Grove City, small school.
At the time it hurt and I didn’t understand. I rebelled. I didn’t want to go to school. I thought he was a moron.
Then he passed.
Over the years I have realized how smart he was!
THANKS DAD! I LOVE YA MAN!
Grove City is a good school. I went right up the road at Allegheny.
