pseudo-intellectual drivel

Don't actually read this. It's about as absurd as some of the crap my mom sends me, except from the opposite end of the political spectrum. It came to my inbox through the Smith young alums listserv, which is not supposed to be used for sharing articles, with a note: "this was really powerful for me."

I think it's silly. I'm sorry that this guy doesn't know how to talk to his plumber, but I'm not sure why he needs to blame that on Yale. I'd hate to be one of his students.
