I tutored English at the university level more years ago than I want to admit to and I was appalled by this thing.

Funny, one of the most intelligent people I ever met was a janitor who'd stopped going to school in the sixth grade in Mississippi. The man would come to work early every day and read ten newspapers. He was capable of conversing on a wide variety of subjects. I had tremendous respect for him, grabbing what turned out to be a very good practical education after "separate but equal" had turned its back on him.
