<p>Finally note I was talking about student bodies and not myself. I still can’t see how I am declaring myself an intellectual. What is pathetic about all this is that you go into mindless attack dog mode. Oh they don’t like usc. Ergo they are self declared intellectuals, ergo they are dumb. </p>
<p>What you really mean to say is that many students who adopt pretentious airs don’t live up to them. Such illusions are projections of insecurity. Which I noted in my original post. I guess you don’t read very “good”. </p>
<p>Well it appears that even some ppl who are not self declared intellectuals (you) appear to be the farthest thing from that. Not sure what an intellectual is nowadays. But we need slightly more complex thinking than that right?</p>
