<Finally, an explanation for how Dubya barely managed to obtain two university degrees and still remain unfocused on the nuances of language usage.
A recent article in Psychology Today magazine claims colleges are perhaps the “worst possible environment in which to retain anything…learned.”
Seems binge drinking, junk food and sleep deprivation on college campuses lead to poor academic performance and sub-par memory retention.
A Harvard University study quoted in the article suggested that 46 percent of college students could be classified as binge drinkers.
The PT author said the studies showed drinking has “detrimental effects on brain functions, memory retention and other learning skills.”
Dubya didn’t get sober until after his mid-life arrest for drunken driving and subsequent conversion to Jesus.
By that time, however, too many martinis had scrambled his brain and permanently mangled his syntax. (29 MAY 2005)
