Nice to see USMA, USNA, USAFA cadets and midshipman.

Pro Tip: Kerp the link handy if you need to educate someone who is “sad your kid didn’t get into college.” The SAs keep company with some decent schools.

Thanks for posting that just, @Capt MJ. I’ve actually heard of some of those other schools that produced Rhodes Scholars, e.g. Harvard, Yale, Georgetown, Michigan. Nice to see them alongside the august SAs.

Well, the SAs aren’t really college, right?

Bravo Zulu to the recipients and kudos to those who made it to the interview portion. Sharp cuts. Tough competition.

SAs get Rhodes winners more out of habit and to keep up their image, note too how the majority of civilian winners come from liberal colleges that also need to maintain their image as 'top flight'; and also because the committee that makes the decisions is full of liberal academics.
