<p>Aw, Byerly, let’s not be disingenuous in our excerpts… if we’re going to talk about the crime of “controversial admissions” then it’s only fair to include the quote that Harvard admitted him as well, he just chose not to attend.</p>
<p>“Blair’s admittance to Yale’s graduate school has been a subject of interest in Great Britain since it was published that Blair, 22, was admitted to top-rated programs at both Harvard and Yale despite having received average grades at Bristol University and experiencing a much-publicized run-in with the law.”</p>
<p>Of course, the point stands that perhaps he shouldn’t have been admitted to either of these fine schools, given his “average grades” at college and his “much-publicized run-in with the law.”</p>
<p>Best,
