Hmm, I guess school integration does have its benefits.

The hardest part of these elite schools is getting yourself in. Once in, the "education," can be pretty much pure indoctrinational crap, with scant reference to anything with a factual, or even historical basis. My son went to an Ivy League school in New England (trust me, you have heard of it). After one semester, I went through hell to get him out of Liberal Arts and into the engineering department ... thinking (semi-correctly as it turns out) he might meet some people more firmly connected to the planet.

He did well, specially in understanding techie nerd teaching assistants from China with an infirm grasp of English. However, no matter what the curriculum one follows at these places, the bend to the left is still quite pronounced.

The deranged authoress of this piece, one "Idris Leppla" should have an American Flag tattooed to her posterior and beg her brother (whose naval career she has probably sunk) for forgiveness.
