Ignorant college students - if they got into Berkeley they are far from ignorant -I do get a kick out of people whom trash places with comments like yours; now I am sure those fine students at that most famous university in New Mexico has no students that protested the war, do drugs, or do alcohol. By the way ignorance and inexperience are two big reasons people go to college.

They can still be book smart and yet super ignorant (unaware and uninformed)

My characterization is accurate. The smart ones barely passed the TOEFL, and can be seen behind the physics building sucking down a smoke between simulations.

There's no denying that Berkeley has high enrollment standards and is a top school. A degree from Berkeley is a great calling card in the postgraduate world. It is faintly ironic, however, that the faculty, administration and a goodly portion of the student body of an institution that proudly touts itself as the cradle of the free speech movement do not necessarily tolerate the free speech of those who dispute leftist doctrine. It's refreshing to see an emboldened conservative voice in the "cradle" of the free speech movement. The pendulum has swung.
