"You know something I would truly like to see is an enforced IQ test. Let's say that the US Marshals pick a random classroom at the United States Military Academy and at the Columbia School of Journalism, chain the doors shut and administer an identical IQ exam.
Gee, who would return the highest average score?"
I'd place my (biased) bet on the West Pointers. But I tell you what, there is a J-School that's turning out broadcasters and pring journalists that are every bit as good as those snooty grads from Columbia and the other schools of "higher learning". That's the Defense Information School (DINFOS) at Ft. Meade, MD. That's my "college" degree. That place teaches every broadcast and print journalist in the military. And I'd put my skills up against any civilian journalist out there mucking around in the sand today. (Sorry about the vanity).

The West Pointers would average what 125 or more as opposed to the urinalism majors' 85IQ or so?
BTW, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER apologize for "vanity" postings. Much of the very best stuff I've seen in 5 years on this site was done by individuals. The gibbering sreechers who protote "vanities are taking up bandwidth" complaints are the types you can bet are jacking off to Helen Thomas posters tacked up over their beds.
