Sounds premeditated to me.
Additional info from the article: “Holmes’ GRE quantitative score was 800 (94th percentile), his verbal score was 710 (98th percentile), and he had an analytical writing score of 4 (45th percentile), according to his UI application. His GPA was 3.94 out of 4.00, according to the application.”
I am removed from academia enough that this is not real meaningful to me, but the analytical writing score seems strange.
I had a job when I was 18 years old as a night attendant in an insane asylum.
Yes, that is true, it was over 40 years ago.
I learned early on that it was a complete and utter waste of time and resources
to try to “understand” why crazy people are crazy.
This would suggest that if Holmes was "crazy"
it only occurred at CU Denver under Dr. Lynn Fenton.Perhaps she was giving him Psychotropic drugs.
