If your sister can just keep her common sense, and learn to laugh at the poseurs' cocked eyebrows and supercilious attitudes, she could do just fine with that Big Ten education. Not that the Big Ten schools are not also corrupted by the Fabian mindset fanning out across the Continent from the intellectual cesspools in the East.

Some of the worst garbage spun by the Leftists in the Life Sciences at Harvard and Columbia is required reading for students in some State Universities. For example, a son of mine at one of our Ohio Universities was required to read a book by Gordon Allport on the nature of "prejudice." That fact prompted me to introduce Gordon Allport to Conservatives not acquainted with the man, as one of the examples in the essay, Myths & Myth Makers In American "Higher" Education.

To a one-worlder--and former Communist fellow-traveller--like Allport, family loyalty, religion and patriotism, were all "prejudices" that interfered with the enlightenment, he sought. Taxpayers should not be promoting his work, but without knowing it, they are.

Here's another stray fact. I graduated UofM some time ago and married an OSU grad. I know the great state of Ohio quite well and I know that there are several excellent schools there.
