David Hogg is leaving the Sunshine State and shipping off to Boston -- the Marjory Stoneman Douglas student's been accepted to Harvard.
David's mom shared the incredible news this week after her son finally allowed her to spread the word. As you can imagine, she's super proud and said she's excited for David's bright future!

I’m sure every school has a Sodomite quota now.
I don't know if you appreciate how profound your statement is and how it needs to be published regularly.
Ah, but you probably did....
It's all what one makes of it.
Soros scholarship.
Well let them waste a couple hundred grand for nothing.
Nope.
He played the vagina card. He sure as hell aint a guy.
He’ll hide his transcripts just like obama.
I’m talking about fairly recent grads. I applied to and got accepted by Dartmouth (’80s era). The scholarship offer I got (probably small then and definitely now, but don’t recall figure) wasn’t even close to enough to go there. I probably could have come up with more scholarship money but I didn’t have time to do all that as I had about a 2 week window to decide in the spring of my HS senior year.
No regrets in not going there but I would have now go somewhere other than where I started.
I think “muffin” must be a code word here.
This is the second “Parkland Survivor” this week. Hahvid appears to be chasing after retarded anti-gun survivor Nazis. That school sure went to hell in a hurry. It used to mean something to go to Harvard. Not anymore.
I wonder what the great scholar David Hogg had on his SAT exam? I suspect he is the beneficiary of white Liberal Progressive Privilege much like Teddy Kennedy whom was a most substandard student that cheated on his exams. Teddy was not good at Spanish, he arranged for another student to take his exam.
See link below and it is at the bottom of the article. Any normal student would have been immediately been kicked out of Harvard but he was a Kennedy.

Harvard will give you a most excellent education if it is of the hard sciences, math, or medical. Aside from this it is very very very expensive garbage. Their law school is an indoctrination center. Their social sciences are worse.
This is sad. I feel bad for the kid. He’s being used.
1270.
1460 is considered "below average" for Harvard, and Hogg got a 1270.
“...he said that [Harvard] may have once been [highly respected], but that one could get as good an education from other schools. He said that Harvard was overrated.”
Over 50 years ago, in my graduate classes in Social Psychology, our professors and we discussed the same point, and why Harvard and the Ivy League was overrated.
In the first place, the students were drawn from the economic elite, so many of them went on to become wealthy, if they were not already rich when they attended the Ivy League schools. When statistics were compared of the success of graduates, Old Ivy came out ahead of State because they started ahead of State. This added to the Ivy League’s prestige.
In the case of a school’s academic rating, that rating was done by Academics teaching (or at least on the faculty of) the other colleges and Universities in the country. Harvard had one of the largest Graduate schools in the country, and one of the highest ratios of PHD’s going into academic positions (as compared to private industry or other jobs) in the country, and had for quite some time. When asked to rate the academic standing of the institutions of higher learning, there was a natural bias in favor of one’s Alma Mater. This bias was self-perpetuating, since students who studied under Harvard Grad Profs tended to accept the high opinion of their teachers at face value, and if they became Professors themselves, rated Harvard high, even if they were biased in favor of their own school.
As far as I know, no-one has ever done an objective study of the actual value of the education offered by our colleges and universities in terms of the positive (and measurable) effects on the lives of its graduates, controlled for their statuses and educational backgrounds before they enrolled.
What, they’ve got a pottery program at Harvard now?
GoFundMe?
He could only manage getting into Cal State Irvine, which he put off starting for one year of agitation. Now Harvard, yeah for sure the fix wasn’t in. Fruck Harvard, they just degraded their degree.
More like “liberal” privilege.
