Still, I suppose it would actually be interesting to have actually trained Prime Teams taking care of first contact missions, or to have a version of Starfleet that is not composed entirely of pompous blowhards and perpetual Berkeley undergraduates.
Bitch. Not every Berkeley undergrad is like that.
And exactly where did I make the generalizaton that all Berkeley undergrads are like that?
Perpetual Berkely undergrads are like that.

I plan to stay here for as long as possible. And I sure as hell ain't like that.
And even perpetual undergrads tend not to be like that. It's the grad students who can be.

Science majors aren't bad, it's the bright-idea-club types of any sort that worry me.
