I don't put much weight in the judgements college-age people make of others. They're still in the mindset of the high school status game they just left.

So do you have some other estimate of their relative intelligence?

At some point along the way I stopped trying to rank people by intelligence.

I agree. Some of the nicest, kindest and best people I've ever met aren't very bright, and some of the nastiest, stab-you-in-the-back jerks are quite intelligent.

That's not to say the converse isn't true for many folks, but "intelligence" isn't a proxy for the quality of a human, IMHO.
