At Harvard, even the two-bit thugs are a world apart

The Crimson reports that Forrest N. Blackwelder-Baggett, formerly of the class of '11, was arrested last week on charges he tried to rob a Texas restaurant at gunpoint. The paper notes:

Blackwelder-Baggett, who viewed himself as an outsider at Harvard, "intoxicated" his freshman-year friends with his "Dionysian" persona, his belief in pursuing individual happiness and discarding traditional notions of success and ambition, and his embodiment of the "attitude toward life that was counter to the attitude of the student body," said the friend, who wished to remain anonymous.

If this represents 'the best and brightest' our country has to offer, we are clearly coming into a world of shit.

That's what I took from reading the article as well. Forrest N. Blackwelder-Baggett is now representative of what Harvard, as a producer of 'the best and brightest' has to offer. Good God almighty, the beast is truly slouching toward Bethlehem...
I'm also certain that there is no one with some sort of mental illness or criminal tendency at any inexpensive, working-class institution of higher learning around here.
