[LH]

Working on a BS in Computer Science and a BFA in Drawing and Painting, will then work on a MS in Visual Sciences. All paid for by me, with no help from the gov or anyone.

What about MD, DDS, OD, DO, DC, JD, etc...

Added MD. Explain to me what the rest mean and I'll add 'em.

DDS: Doctor of Dental Sciences ... ie. a dentist

DO: Doctor of opthamalogy?

JD: Doctor of Jurisprudence ... ie. lawyer ?

Might as well just have them post in the thread, IF we even have any of those.

The high you go in the education merry-go-round, the fewer people you find that are racist

I find that statement insulting.......and as YOU cannot spell, YOU must be a racist!

I don't know about racist, but one of the most sexist person I ever met held an endowed chair at a major university

Was I the only one to read that as sexiest?

JD = Juris Doctoris. In other words, a law degree.

And i'm just a high school student postin up in this house.

i have high levels of smartness

Possibly a poll that shows how the 'educated' put themselves above the lessor throngs of everyday people is in order......oh wait, we call them Liberals! They KNOW more and can always tell YOU how YOU should act and behave. Pass laws that affect YOU? No problem! They are EXEMPT because they are ELITISTS!

Educate an idiot and all you get is an educated idiot.

So I left off a morpheme. Shoot me.

The statement is true though, by the most recent statistics I've seen.

That's odd. 99% of your posts are condescending.

Yea, OK. True enough, but I find this type of generalisation lacking at best and downright wrong at worst.

I've never seen a correlation in real life where education equaled kindness or the poor being less kind.

Grouping anyone together and judgeing them because they are in that group is just wrong. I think you will agree.

i'm in college right now, doing GE before transfering to a "real" school, i'm in CC right now.....whee

 

[wyvrn]

You didn't include Associates degree options. Or do you consider that to fit inside the some college option?

It's interesting how much correlates to level of education. The high you go in the education merry-go-round, the fewer people you find that are racist. Just spurred me to wondering what the general edu level is of AT.

Um, on what do you base this theory? Just curious.

 

[prodigy]

Where's the option for elementary school?

 

[Supermercado]

Junior in college right now. Will have a BS in Computer Science May 2004.

 

[WinkOsmosis]

In college!

 

[Martin]

I'm in university right now and I'd like to get an MBA or Masters in nanotech engineering.

 

[pulse8]

I have a BS in BS.

Or a BA in Film. Can't remember which.

I do agree. I was citing statistics given in a class. There is a logical connection. Given that racial tolerance is PC, and schools generally teach what is PC, the higher level of education you have, the more persuasive messages you have been exposed to about racial equality. Hence, people with a higher level of education are more likely to be racially tolerant. The stats I've seen seem to support this.
