Just a Note
The Hatchet is reporting that the number of highly intelligent students that choose GW is on the decline.
Judging by what’s happening over at Yale, that might not be a bad thing.
Kirk Update (regarding faux-art @ Yale) : GWU professor Margaret Soltan’s University Diaries (part of The Colonialist blogroll!!!!) has a montage of snippets from various articles interspersed with her reading of the whole shebang here.
It was a hoax / performance art / she had no “herbal abortions” and she didn’t engage in freelance artificial insemination.

I found this article to be really, really stupid. Aren’t National Merit Scholarships what you get for doing really well on the PSATs? I think it’s a pretty big leap to classify all those who do well on PSATs as “intelligent”, considering how biased the college board tests tend to be. Hooray sensationalist headlines!
yale presents an interesting situation in which 2 things i really advocate for, the freedom of art and the right to choose, collide with each other to produce something i find completely apalling. what gives?
