Somewhere, An Actual Smart Kid Has Been HoggBlocked

Newser-

How’s this for a comeback: David Hogg is going to Harvard, USA Today reports. The Parkland shooting survivor and gun-control activist, who was razzed by a Fox News host after rejections from other schools, tweeted Saturday about the news: “Thank you all for the well wishes,” he writes, “I’ll be attending Harvard in the fall with a planned major in Political Science.” Hogg has a 1270 SAT score and 4.2 GPA, but was turned down earlier this year by UC Irvine, UC San Diego, UC Santa Barbara, and UCLA. “Sure, it’s disappointing and annoying, but not surprising,” he told the New York Times. “There are a lot of amazing people who do not get into or go to college.”

  1. The Ivy League ain’t what it used to be.
    You can still get a decent education there.
    But, you can get just as good or better
    education elsewhere and far cheaper.

    The supposedly ” prestigious ” schools
    have become so entrenched with leftist
    extremist brain washing that it is
    questionable as to what their diplomas
    are actually worth.

    The continued existence of these institutions
    and what they actually represent are the
    greatest argument for the abolishment of
    academic tenure.

  2. This may be a good thing; it may have saved a malleable youth from being irrecoverably lost to the dark forces of collectivism. Piggy is already gone, so no additional damage done.

    Harvard, huh? What’s that line, again?
    Something about nuking from orbit to be sure?
