Guess well never know whether it was a dishonorable discharge that kept him from the better-known law schools, but we certainly DO know that his connection to a BC democrat helped in his admission to ANY law school! Kerry first applied to Harvard Law School.
They turned him down due to inadequate grades as a Yale undergraduate.
Thus, JF*K was forced to settle for BC.

That’s certainly true on its face. But I still think there’s more to it than that. Why BC? I thought he applied to Yale as well. It’s too much of a coincidence that Drinan happened to be at BC and Kerry happened to be accepted there. I don’t know what the current standards are, but back then a DD kept you out of ALL law schools.
