Except she graduated Cum Laude.
Affirmative action is what I'm guessing.
After seeing kids at institutions like Yale crying and whining about safe spaces, I don't take for granted that a degree or a university means anything until that person proves their knowledge in another way.

You’re asking the wrong question OP. You shouldn’t be amazed that she has a economics degree from Boston U. What you fail to realize is for the most part colleges have ceased to be actual institutes of higher learning. Instead they’re little more than socialist progressive indoctrination camps. AOC is who she is not in spite of her degree, she is exactly what her degree was designed to produce.

This is the same way some of the Trumpkins on here are perceived. How do they have a degree? In anything?
What are some examples of this trait?

She has a degree but you have no idea what her grades were. You can have a degree and have learned almost nothing with grades just good enough to pass.

Still, getting a college degree is pretty easy and doesn’t make anyone credible imo
Shelia Jackson Lee, B.A. Yale, J.D. U.Va is all the proof needed that there is no relationship between educational level, and intelligence.

International Relations is one of the least credible majors in academia. IR applies scientific methodology to history, with bad results.
IR uses complicated graphs and data sets to sex up simple ideas that are better explained with a short paragraph.
Worst of all, it tries to eliminate the person from history, to draw larger lessons.
This is an intrinsically dumb idea.
People and culture are what make history, and make history so inexplicable at times.
Most papers are purposefully dense. This makes the author seem smart, to some people, and makes simple ideas appear complicated. They consider complicated good.
As a profession, it is a waste, and should not exist.

It does not surprise me that AOC is an IR major. There are smart people who take it. But there are many like her.

Are you suggesting that the right honorable Congresswoman was a floozy?

Again, as I posted earlier in this thread, she graduated Cum Laude. It's not the grades. Either it's affirmative action or BU is completely fricking awful.

Think it’s her minor. But even so it’s amazing

This is the same way...

There is not one Trumpkin on this board that is a member of congress nor one that claims to have a degree in economics from Boston University.

Pussy can get a women far in life.
Im on an awfully big yacht here in Trinidad a few years back ,the owner a nice fella he is Mr. Home Depot of the West Indies. Has a couple dozen people on the thing, I have my back to two very attractive women who are in a conversation, and an even bigger yacht pulls up next to ours. One woman said to the other "Gosh, how much do you think that cost?" Without missing a beat the chick she was talking to (who was married to a very wealthy Barbadian) said "Good pussy".
This one wasnt selling it for 100 bucks a pop, or a house in the burbs, this one knew her true value!!!

Obviously the econ department at BC isn't that great

Has nothing to do with a degree, she is just ignorant.
Low unemployment because everyone has two jobs.
The 3 billion in tax breaks could be spent on several other programs other than Amazon. Yes, she actually thought her state was gonna cut them a check for 3 billion apparently.

Sorry, but you can't graduate cum laude from a university and not know how UE numbers work unless the program is dog shite
