Note that the praise was not especially earnest.

    It does in fact make him “well educated.” He’s not smart, learned, well-read, or thoughtful. It’s just a fact, it’s not something that can be debated. No one with a community college degree will ever be well educated and no one with an Ivy League degree will ever not be well educated.

      A person who attended an Ivy League school has had the OPPORTUNITY to become well educated. But it’s possible to graduate without making any use of that opportunity. Especially if you’re a cheating cheater who cheats from the get-go, and is only interested in staying out of the military and social climbing.

      Meanwhile a person can cobble together an excellent education at community colleges with a transfer to a state university, if they really care about learning and having a well-rounded intellect, choose their classes and professors carefully, and go beyond the regular expectations in coursework.

        No, mere matriculation and conferring of a degree makes that individual, definitionally, we’ll educated.

        You don’t have to like basic facts for them to be true. This is a good life lesson for you.

          Okay you’re welcome to say they’re “definitionally we’ll educated” because that tells me all I need to know about you. Shoddy scholarship is clearly your hallmark.
