In an off-List message from a senior List member, I was recently accused of being a Choate alumnus. Choate is an elite private (British: public) secondary school in Connecticut. While I did live for a year a mile or two from Choate, and used to drive through their campus on my way to work, I never attended that institution. Here is a summary of my serious education:
Novato (California) HS, Class of '68Washington & Lee University, BA (cum laude and with honors), European History and Ancient Greek, '72
Yale University, MA in Classical Languages, '74Marshall-Wythe School of the Law at the College of William & Mary in Virginia, JD, 1981
Command and General Staff College, '84I have a bunch of other, less serious, courses on the resume, of course, and I have taught extensively as well.
But, no, I never attended Choate or any other private secondary or primary school.
