JFK at Yale

<p>“[Why England Slept] was originally intended to be no more than a college thesis and is not considered to be particularly well written (was rated as a magna cum laude by Professor Henry A. Yeomans and as a cum laude plus by Professor Carl J. Friedrich). However Kennedy’s father, Joseph Kennedy, always keen to elevate his sons’ reputation for future political standing, pulled strings with his publishing contacts to secure its release and then purchased some 30,000 copies, which were stored, unread, in the attic of the family’s home in Hyannisport.”</p>

<p>"Kennedy was an average student at Harvard, never earning an A, but mostly B’s and C’s, with a single D in a sophomore history course. He graduated cum laude from Harvard with a degree in international affairs in June 1940. "</p>
