Don't bother me with such trifles
Mar. 2nd, 2012 07:54 am"Sixty-two percent of kids who enter college with some sort of faith commitment leave without it."
— Rick Santorum
"Sixty-four percent of those currently enrolled in a traditional four-year institution have curbed their attendance habits. Yet, 76 percent of those who never enrolled in college report a decline in religious service attendance."
— 2007 Social Forces study
"A quarter of students (25%) say they have become more spiritual since entering college, as opposed to only seven percent (7%) who say they have become less spiritual."
— 2006 Harvard study
So Rick doesn't want people with a 'faith commitment' to go to college. That might help with parking congestion a bit.
