Yes, a broad education…

August 22, 2007

Every once and a while these stories come rolling around, especially when schools are about to start. I normally read them and then rightfully forget them. But remember yesterday’s “a broad education is the best preparation?” Now read this:

“I actually visited the Berlin Wall with my parents when I was in fifth grade,” said Jacob Williams, 18, of Louisville Ky., who is going through freshmen orientation at Beloit this week. “I didn’t know a lot about the history, but I think it was a great piece of architecture.”

Let’s hope that in four (or perhaps five or six) years, when this guy graduates and starts looking for a job, Google is not able to find this story when employers search his name.
