Paywall. Princeton is where kegsbreth graduated from. He doesn’t believe in germs. They give morons degrees.

  Everybody gets a degree if they complete all the exams. Degrees are about effort and discipline not about intelligence. I hold several degrees and can testify that most people that get to call themselves an engineer shouldn’t engineer anything involving human life. Or any life really.
