He is not a Harvard University graduate! How many times is this going to get repeated? He got an MBA at Harvard, a FAR cry from going to Harvard Univerisity. The standards for getting into the business school bear NO resemblance to those for getting into Harvard University proper.
Jackson got his undergraduate degree from the University of North Carolina.

What a Crock. Somebody cares? The winner has already been picked according to whatever political correctness is in power this year.

What, Kwame isn't a Marxist? Isn't that required for admission to Harvard as an undergraduate?

The standards for getting into the business school bear NO resemblance to those for getting into Harvard University proper. If he were described as a Harvard grad, would that be sufficient? The business school is a part of the university, so that description is correct. I graduated from Harvard Law School. I understand myself to be a Harvard grad. Am I wrong? Btw, as a sidenote, I do not think getting into the undergraduate program these days is as tough as it used to be . . . like 20 or 30 years ago.

What, Kwame isn't a Marxist? Isn't that required for admission to Harvard as an undergraduate?Harvard University, despite all we know about the political leanings of its faculty, is a helluva tough school to get into, even for Affirmative Action admissions. It takes only the top kids out of high school. The brightest kids in the country go to Harvard, Yale or Princeton -- and some to Stanford. The competition is incredibly stiff.
It irks me that this guy Kwame Jackson (a nice enough guy it seems to me; this is nothing against him) is getting credit left and right for a degree he does not have. I worked with a guy who got a Harvard MBA and I know for a fact that it takes very little to get into the school. Basically all he had to do was guarantee that the company he then worked for would pick up the bill and he was in.

"But his interaction with the delegates, albeit unintentional,
Unintentional? Yeah right. "I was just a spinning around and my hand kept contacting the female anatomy. Really, it was accidental. I was just trying to show them that I be cool."
To: Ganymede
If you went to Harvard Law you know as well as I do that graduates of Harvard University do not consider you a Harvard grad. No offense.
By the way, Kwame Jackson knows it too.

I remember reading one of the girls from the Apprentice said that Kwame was a real Hound Dog. Nothing like he appeared on TV!!!

One of the marvels of geography is that students on both sides of the Charles River (i.e. Business School and Undergraduates) are able to look down on each other.
To: Ganymede
By the way, a degree from Harvard Law is nothing to sneeze at. Forgive me if I implied otherwise. It's just not the same as an undergraduate degree from Harvard University and everybody on campus understands the distinctions.
I should also note that getting into Harvard Law is a helluva lot tougher than getting into Harvard's not very distinguished business school.

One of my best friends dated a former Miss World. She was from Venezuela.
He showed me some pictures of her taken I think, at a restaurant and I would have never guessed she was a beauty queen.
On a scale of 1 to 10 I would have given her a 7.5 maybe an 8.
Go to any American University or high school and you will see lots of prettier girls.
