MIT - Revoke Rep. Thomas Massie's Degrees. He's an Embarassment to Your School
From the New York Magazine: On Wednesday, Republican congressman Thomas Massie tried to trap former secretary of State John Kerry with one of the most inane “gotcha” questions imaginable. Kerry appeared before a House committee to testify about the dangers of climate change, which Massie, like so many in his party, has dismissed as a threat. So Massie tried to dent Kerry’s credibility on the subject by revealing the shocking fact that Kerry’s undergraduate degree from Yale (he graduated in 1966 ) was in — prepare yourselves, ladies and gentlemen of the jury — political science, not science science. Massie, who himself holds a robotics degree from MIT, which you wouldn’t guess from watching the exchange, was roundly mocked online all day.
But the point is clear: the fact that an MIT graduate like Rep. Thomas Massie would spout such crazy misinformation about climate change is a big problem.
MIT - protect the reputation of your school and your graduates, and revoke Rep. Massie's degrees.
