And of course those were the days when to go to university REALLY meant something. As opposed to today when someone does 'BA Media Studies & Forensic Science' at the University of Clugthorpe (formerly the Clugthorpe School of Hairdressing).

So education was better then too.  


Mr McGee, don't make me angry. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry.
