"Must be awfully embarrasing, then, that George Bush got better grades than John Kerry at Yale. " Anyone that thinks a man with an undergraduate degree from Yale and a post graduate degree from Harvard is dumb... quite frankly is showing their own ignorance. I graduated magna cum laude from a large state university and was promptly humbled by colleagues with the same degrees from these very same Ivy league schools.
The leftists that I've confronted with this maintain that both colleges were willing to risk their status and their "brand" by giving GW Bush easier grades and passing him when he didn't deserve it.
Such knots you have to twist yourself into to justify a leftist position.
I graduated magna cum laude from a large state university and was promptly humbled when I met my contemporaries at that Ivy League school. Wow, I still had to work my butt off (more than I did as an undergrad) and they didn’t understand why I needed to work so hard.
Easy to be a big fish in a little pond wasn’t it? Showed up at the lake and we weren’t so big anymore. It was the greatest character building experience of my life.
