Funny how a little commie bitch like her would sound the death call for President Nixon. However in the case of her POS arranged marriage partner, he was always the victim of the right wing extremist conspiracy. The two klintoons should both be in federal prison and I rest my case. Thank you for your intell, it was appreciated. NSNR
Do you have a source for that? Because I've heard the exact opposite -- that it's not uncommon for Rhodes Scholars to leave without a degree. Not trying to be smart. Perhaps I picked that up by way of a Clinton apologist. They were always putting out lines that they never expected people to fact-check. (Does Sir Edmund Hillary Rodham ring a bell?)
I don't have a source, and to a certain degree I must admit I'm guessing. Consider, however, the typical Rhodes Scholarship winner: perpetual scholastic achiever and "grade-getter"; think "Lisa Simpson, if Lisa Simpson were a varsity swimmer." These are not the kind of people who willingly pass up the chance to add to their CV not merely "Rhodes Scholar" but also "M.A., Christ Church [or whichever] College, Oxford University."
I googled around a bit but couldn't find any stats on frequency of degree-getting.
I'd heard that a lot don't graduate because the program of study (if you call it that) is largely self-designed -- kinda like a doctoral thesis. You get your course of study approved by the department and off you go. A lot of students don't follow through and just kind of hang-out & tour Europe for a year (sound familiar?).
By the time they wake-up to the fact that their second year approaches, it's really too late to get anything done. So they leave.
Again, I must emphasize that this is what I've heard. I do not know any Rhodes Scholar, directly or indirectly. If anybody can shed any further light on this one-way or the other, I'd greatly appreciate it.

That is the story, but since he is a leftist, the media doesn't bring it up, no pun intended since it was supposed to be for attacking a female fellow student, ala Juanita.
