College according to Kerouac: Day 3

Day 3 in The Beat Handbook is titled, "On College." Since I'm a college professor, this entry in my book rather startled some of my colleagues, but remember: I'm simply channeling Jack Kerouac through his novels.

My entry starts out: "Don't go to college." It references the following passage in The Dharma Bums,

which includes the phrase:
"...grooming schools for the middle-class non-identity."

Ouch.

Tomorrow: On crap.
