All with high Mexican population, I would guess.

What a useless, horseshit survey. No newspapers in Anaheim? Wrong.

I agree. I don't think these tards surveyed anything in the southeast. They're also light in the shorts as far as establishing standards go.

Whether someone has access to a local bookstore or a daily newspaper effects their ability to read?

I'd say their methodology was flawed, but "flawed" isn't the right word, and I'm not literate enough to come up with the correct word for this bit of stupid.

If somebody were to rank the least competent public universities, I'm pretty sure CCSU would be near the top (or bottom depending on how you order it) of the list.

Is that the school Dins graduated from?

Piling on here, the Mesa Tribune was established in 1997 and has been in print ever since. In point of fact, the first Mesa newspaper to be published came into existence in 1891, and there have been a number of paper established since, including the Tribune. While I won't defend Mesa for having the brightest bulbs in the world, to call the city one of the most illiterate from a standpoint of not having available reading material and literature is asinine. The line about having no newspapers in print in 2013 is either a lie or ridiculously misinformed. Incredibly stupid study.

CCSU is in New Britski. Pollack capital of Ct. Other side of Hartford from me. Decent enough state school. Lil miss smack got accepted there, but then got into UConn also which is more closer and more better too. My sis's son and 2 daughters go there as it is 2 minutes from their house in Newington. They is purty smart kids, so it can't be that bad. Of course it is largely populated with spics/nogs from Hartford and New Britain. And they get in by spelling their name right. And let's face it,, when your name is la qwuan, who the fukk is gonna challenge the spelling.

As for the poll, it's about as scientific as any of the other claptrap that passes as higher edumacatin' these days

Kevin Harvick is from Bakersfield, so at least they have that going for them.

After attending my aunt's Catholic funeral today in Seneca Kansas, a coma seems enticing.
