A Bow Tie Does Not Make Someone An Intellectual

The funny thing about Roger Kimball’s ongoing campaign of complaining about the decline of academia and western civilization is that they come from a man who knows essentially nothing about anything.

Maybe his career is a kind of performance art dedicated to proving the proposition that America is “dumbing down.”
