<p>Pretty sure you don't get appointed the chief editor of the Harvard Law Review for being mediocre.</p>
<p>I just find it amusing how on CC, we are always emphasizing that your education does not define you- that it's okay if you get rejected from Harvard, there are plenty of other great schools out there. That it isn't were you get the degree, it's what you do with it.</p>
<p>And, then, we rip Palin up for going to school in Idaho.</p>

<p>We're not making fun of Palin for going to Cornell or any other elitist crap like that. Hell, we're not even making fun of her for doing to Idaho.</p>
<p>We're making fun of her because she's not a smart or informed person, and her academic record (nearly flunking out of many universities) verifies that.</p>
<p>IQ tests are a very reliable measure of intelligence. Feynman, one of the greatest scientists of the 20th century had an IQ of 125. I'll wager Einstein's was of the same order.</p>

<p>Thank you for pointing out the hypocrisy.</p>
<p>"Plenty of other great schools" on CC means ranked schools. I don't think anybody's saying "it's okay you didn't get into Harvard, community college is just as good."</p>
