Yale Hits Bottom, Digs

It’s not bad enough that you admit a former Taliban official into a once great university. No, you also have to completely shut down any discussion of the issue. Yale is following an “ignore the issue and it will go away” policy over the admission of Sayed Rahmatullah Hashemi. Hashemi was a spokesman for the former Taliban regime in Afganistan. Yale admitted Hashemi as a student last year. Many, many bloggers have covered this, I won’t even try to cover all the ground again. But this link to Penraker pretty well sums up the whole issue. It also exposes a level of pure shallowness among some of the so-called students at Yale. Frankly, if the students he quotes are typical of the current Yale education, there is a real problem in that university.

H/T Instapundit for the link.
