Many rich, privileged kids get a lousy education.
The man who served me in the Dunkin’ Donuts graduated with a degree in sociology that he didn’t pay for (minority scholarship).
He got a job as a carpenter after graduation but got laid off.
Once in the locker room at the gym I heard a middle aged man say, “I’m an educated man, I have a master’s degree.” My first thought was that I have never heard someone who seemed to be really educated use such an expression. Later he told me that his degree was in sociology. I don’t think there is any possibility that he could have passed my high school final. His comprehension of reality was severely limited, he was apparently retired military but I don’t know how he managed to stay in for twenty years without being thrown out. He was struggling just to function and seemed to believe that all his problems were caused by others.
