The College Fix

Greta Van Susteren thinks that wouldn’t be such a bad thing:

In many instances you go to fancy schools because you can — your family has money, or you have scholarship or a special mentor, or your family guided you there because they knew about those schools. Some families don’t even think those schools are within reach and so we never get to experience the leadership skills of their family member.

I am certainly not criticizing those who seize the opportunity and go to fancy schools — but merely lamenting the fact that we miss the opportunity to experience the great skills and leadership of those who did not. Not everything is learned in a classroom — and all A’s doesn’t mean you have the answers for everyone else. It means you are good at tests. I think practical real life experience is much more valuable.

We think Obama has proved that an Ivy League education doesn’t necessarily make someone a good president.
