What a surprise!

You mean he found if your parents are not college educated its more likely you will have a lesser IQ than a child of the parents of college educated parents?

This is a subject close to my heart as my father was a factory worker and my mom a waitress when I was small. Nevertheless, of eight children all but one of us has a college degree. Mom and Dad valued education as the great avenue to bettering onesself and we took it to heart.

But of course the odds are as he found. No surprise there.

Thats what this country is all about...the opportunity to beat the odds through personal effort.

Did he get a big grant to make that study?
