He's not my cup of tea, but who's to say he wouldn't have gotten into Harvard anyhow? And even if Harvard did let him in because he was sort of famous, what's he supposed to do? Say no? If he wanted to go there it's not for us to judge. So what? Applying to Harvard and going if they accept you doesn't make you a bad person.

If a letter suddenly came in the mail from an Ivy League school saying you were in, and you thought you might be smart and hard working enough to make it there, and you were willing to take on the loans, would you go? Of course you would.

If you want to be completely truthful about the situation, Hogg was given acceptance to Hahvahd because they crave the attention his social activism brings. In essence, he’s a student athlete who only has to represent to attend. We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!

Mike is also completely neglecting the FACT this kid capitalized on the murder of his classmates and that notoriety is the only reason he would ever get the attention of an Ivy League school in the first place, based on his previous rejections.

The kid had a SAT score in the 1200s and the norm for Harvard is in the 1500s...

You said, and I quote “He's not my cup of tea, but who's to say he wouldn't have gotten into Harvard anyhow?” That 1270 SAT score says he wouldn’t. Hell, he probably wouldn’t have gotten into UF with a 1270, much less gotten into Harvard.

The thought of living in Boston for 4 years would be like a prison sentence for me. I HATE the city. Any city. I don't even like visiting small cities, so the idea of living in a big city (especially on the northern east coast with a bunch of Red Sox and Patriots fans), would be pure Hell for me. I have my degree from Miami (OH), go Redhawks! That's good enough for me. I was able to commute from my home.
Mike's people are trying to cancel Stallone for joining Mar-a-Lago.

The appeal of going to an Ivy League school has diminished greatly the past few years. Even if my kids were to get accepted, I'd encourage them to go to a more normal school that isn't going to indoctrinate them for massive sums of cash.

You knew more about the guy than I did. But does that extra tidbit of information, that Harvard did indeed extend special treatment to him, really justify calling him one of the "worst human beings on the planet"?

We already know he's a bad person, every bit of his post-Parkland behavior shows he's nothing more than an opportunist trading on his dead classmates.
