Drew Johnson, calling people names? so frustrated you can't think like an adult and form an intelligent discussion?Relax Drew, your trigger is showing.

I got Wharton right. I don't give a rip who went there, or what he/she did for a living. I REALLY don't like bringing politics into every quiz. Do you people not have anything else to do??

Rita Andree, thank God he's no longer the president! I respect the office of the President but so far he hasn't earned the respect! I see your comment was written 2 years ago, so how do you feel NOW after all the people who have died because HE denied it was NO big thing??? And don't say he wasn't responsible! 😡😡

we attempt to keep this non-political, but sometimes questions lead to opinions!

williamrlaughlin, agreed with you, all the way up until you said he is our not your president. As long as you plan to remain a citizen of the united States of America, I'm afraid he WAS duly elected president. Not voted president. but he got the electoral college, which is the only reason he holds the office the embarrasses so many of us Americans, however if we can't find a decent Democrat to run in 2020 we may be doomed to another term of more of the same we have gone through since he took office. Every time it looks like he will get fried for something he did wrong, he just gets away with it or people become engrossed in another story and move on. That is one of his favorite tactics.

williamrlaughlin, You said it perfectly. So many intelligent people are being blinded by BS. They are believing everything and not fact checking. If they are, they should find out who is behind the site they check facts on. Many confirm the deceptions and misinformation. People should wake up.

Harvard was the first college in the US. It was built in Cambridge, Massachusetts in 1636, before the US had become an independent nation. Harvard University is composed of Harvard College and ten other separate academic units.
