and there's more...
Someone in my Masters program was giving a presentation on an article she'd found in the newspaper about a ban on junk food vending machines in schools. For the purposes of getting some "participation points," I brought up the following point:
"If the school officials are so concerned for the students' health, why don't they ensure they're not feeding the children over-processed, genetically modified food for their lunch as well?"

The presenter replied:
"Yeah... I think there was something about that in the article, but they didn't use SUCH BIG WORDS!"

Graduate school, eh?
