The Memorial Day weekend is here, bringing with it
summer. At this time of year, many young people gather together in houses, get
drunk and stupid, and wreck the joints.
Those are the types of idiots that Jersey Shore
was about. While it aired, some colleges offered courses on the show.
One of its “stars,” Snooki, was even paid $32,000 to speak at a
student-sponsored event at Rutgers University 13 years ago.
And then there’s “The Situation.” What I’d like to
know is who else he met in “prehistoric kindergarten”? Pebbles Flintstone?
Can you think of any better demonstration of the
crisis in American education, or even the dire state of this republic?
