From College

An email response to The Barrister's post, from an undergraduate reader:

We are entering round two of the Dark Ages. It shall be called "The Darker Ages".  It is a time when the typical Earthling student has no idea what the hell is going on in the world, or has ocurred in the world besides his menial existence. If he thinks he does know, he probably is confused or has been brainwashed by the media or psycho professors. In college, a place where people should be deepening their intellect, students are more likely blacked-out drunk in the basement of a frat house or busting their asses on a basketball court in order to get a free ride. These types  are the exonerated students at competitive universities such as Georgetown, Princeton, and Johns Hopkins - because they are totally awesome!! Actually, I am not really sure what exonerated means. And I just overhear a dude say to his friend:

"Dude, don't you have class now?"
"Yeah, but whatever, it's just Theology."
