I’ve been down on the Ivy League for a while, and it has nothing to do with having an issue with supposedly elite institutions. I actually don’t have an issue with elite places of higher learning. I just figure that “elite” should mean something other than “connected.”

But lately, what we’ve seen from these supposedly elite schools is anything but elite. Imagine paying tens of thousands of dollars to send your kid to school, all so they can show out and be an antisemitic dipstick.

And I tend to bash Harvard worst of all, especially after they admitted a state college reject simply because he’d become an anti-gun spokesperson.

Somehow, though, they managed to do something I have to give them props for.
