Drew Litton: One for Academia’s Most Important Athletes

This time of year it’s so easy to get caught up in the football season and forget what really matters. lost often times are the students who spend endless hours studying, researching, and reading. Why we don’t celebrate those people more is beyond me. It’s part of the culture to raise up athletes to a ridiculous stature and and ignore the amazing contributions that intellectual in nature. It’s too bad. We miss esteeming a lot of kids that way.

True story. If you’re not a movie star, a pop/rap star, sports star, CEO of a bad corporation (GM, Worldcom, Wells Fargo), or a random 5-minute fame person like Octo-mom, then you are a nobody! You’re just another citizen or what I call a “drone”. lol. That’s life though and oh well. Not much different than the middle ages. Except we called those with higher stature “Nobles”.
