[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some of the smartest and wisest people I’ve known haven’t had a college degree, whereas some of the biggest idiots and jerks I’ve known have been college graduates. A diploma guarantees neither intelligence nor common sense. While it does indicate that the holder was exposed to some field of knowledge, there is no guarantee that the knowledge was mastered and has been retained. Meanwhile, there have always been some intellectually curious and highly motivated individuals who pursued their passions independently. Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, the Wright Brothers, Thomas Edison, Abraham Lincoln and Benjamin Franklin are just a few of the countless Americans who made profound contributions to this country despite never graduating from college. [/quote] Ben Franklin thought so little of higher education that he ended up...founding the University of Pennsylvania. [/quote]
