Ted Kaczynski matriculated and graduated from Harvard.

To make a college admissions department a sole arbiter of who is good in the world is to place too much responsibility and power in a location unsuited for the task.

Ted was on point in most of his views except for the “killing people” thing. Lots of business execs have graduated from Harvard and probably done worse for the country overall than TK.

I don't think that anyone is calling for a college admissions department to be the sole arbiter of who is good in the world. Mind you, if I had to choose between a college admissions department and US immigration officials as the sole arbiter of who is good in the world, I suspect that US immigration officials would probably not be getting the call.
