David Hogg Plans to Major in Political Science At Harvard; Harvard Doesn’t Offer (T)

Many questioned anti-Second Amendment activist David Hogg’s acceptance to Harvard, which he announced via Twitter on Saturday, considering that he openly complained about his high school grades and the fact that he achieved only a 1270 on his SAT test.

“David Hogg is heading to Harvard despite an SAT score of 1270. The bottom 25% at Harvard have an average SAT score of 1460,” College Fix noted.

But still, the left wing media swooned after Hogg announced that he was headed to the Ivy League school in Cambridge, Mass.

“Thank you all for the well wishes, I’ll be attending Harvard in the fall with a planned major in Political Science,” he said.

Well, I batted .500.

My older kid came out more conservative, more devout than when he went in. And he went in pretty conservative and devout.

He was disgusted by what he saw. But he majored in Classics, and was taught by some of the greatest living classicists in the world. Very old guys. Old-style liberals. Intolerant of the current nonsense. They respected him, and he reciprocated. And he really polished his Latin and Greek, while adding a few other languages. Typically, the deader the better.

Harvard sent him all over the world for 4+ years (they paid for him to go to Rome the summer before his freshman year, and paid for him to study Sanskrit in India after he finished his degree).

He works for a conservative education policy institute while he’s finishing his masters.

The younger guy entered pretty conservative and devout, majored in theoretical math, and went crazy nutball liberal, and lost his faith.

He’s working for a start-up applying his math to machine learning, helping to build our AI overlords.

They chose Harvard after some lobbying by me, since, other than the state university, Harvard provided the lowest net cost after financial aid.

In my next life - state university for both of them.

hogg better be able to leverage his celebrity for all four years, because otherwise, Harvard will eat him alive.

Thanks.

"WHO IS PAYING FOR HIS EDUCATION?
..........HAHVAHD AIN’T ‘FREE’................."

Very good question.
And I have another question:
Who paid for Obama's education? How did Obama get in to Harvard?

Too bad your daughter wasn’t gay or trans. Did you think of Ancestry.com? All she would have needed is a trace of black and she’d have gotten a full ride.

Hogg probably has a full ride Soros Scholarship and won’t need to take any classes.

Congratulations! You must be a very proud pop! Hopefully she didn’t drink the koolaid and kept a clear mind. They are topnotch and in the Patriot League. I hope that means something still.

Has anyone seen the meme with David Hogg and Adam Lanza? I’m not saying they are the same person but it really is creepy how much they look alike. By the way, since the news cycles pretty quickly some times, did they ever arrest Adam Lanza? Whatever happened to that? I don’t recall hearing.

Never mind, just found out that supposedly Adam Lanza committed suicide during the attack.

If his family income is under $65,000 per year, it generally will be free.

If young hogg’s family income is less than $65,000 per year, it probably is free.

Somebody had to pull some big strings to get him in. His SAT score wasn’t even in the bottom 25%.........

No, Harvard takes a few “celebrity” or “cause” cases every year.

One year, the took a girl who was “homeless” even though her SAT, on the 2400 scale, was under 2000 (around 1300 on the 1600 scale).

It’s a rough road to hoe. If you lose your “celebritiness,” if you become yesterday’s news, you’re sunk. The “children of names” (such as the daughter of the president of China) do better because usually, their parents are well-established in their fame, and the reflected glory doesn’t wear off in four years.
