@plainoldme,
It's fascinating how every subject is carefully selected and utilised as a very lightly disguised facility to draw attention to the important social standing of those doing the selecting.
I used to say, many years ago, that whenever I was introduced to a person in a pub or a club who had an offspring of their loins at a university that it would be a matter of no importance whatsoever what the subject of the conversation was but that I would be informed of this fact within 30 seconds of the conversation beginning.
It's about time some folks recognised that ol' spendi has been around enough to know that the whole gamut of the social hierarchy from top to bottom consists of nothing else but a bunch of wankers, toss-pots and chancers and that no amount of trumpeting will ever convince him to the contrary.
"I have criminal justice majors among my students" is a case in point. That flags up control freakery goodstyle. What it has to do with Arizona or millions of Mexican bandits pouring over the border to seek the good life as advertised on TV I cannot imagine.
