Why college graduates are morons

College is usually portrayed as an intellectual pursuit. In all honesty, I don't think that I have ever met an intelligent college graduate.

College graduates are not what we tend to think. College is an extension of our mentally destructive K-12 schooling system. Students turn to their teachers, or professors in this case, to tell them what they know. Thinking for themselves is worthless when it comes to grades. It's really only those who sacrifice their mental abilities who succeed in such an environment. Someone who spends 17 years pursuing mindlessness is generally worse than people who only live 13 years with the schools.

It's not just that. We hear a lot from our peers regarding the importance of college. This means that college students attend because they mindlessly assume that college is right for them.

It's actually kind of weird. We act as though college is intellectual, but most of us can see that college campuses aren't exactly full of brainiacs. I guess the idea is that college itself doesn't make people intelligent, it's the degree. That is, unless you are like me and see college graduates for the mindless zombies that they really are.
