I audited that lecture but couldn't get the point. Dave Donelson, author of Heart of Diamonds

I did swordfight but in Monkey Island style.

I’m sure there are plenty of women who’d like to take up sword-fighting, too, Carl. They’d have to, if only for self-defense. The idea of a bunch of frat-boys running around with sharp objects wouldn’t exactly make me want to set foot on a campus…

Besides, it’s parents who turn their kids into “self entitled wusses”; the damage is done long before they ever set foot in a college.

That is awesome.

Our colleges these days could certainly use a bit of roughing up to turn boys into men instead of self entitled wusses. I was so bored at college.
