Alvin Greene has a diploma. And not from the Forrest Gump School of Wisdom-Spouting Rubes either. Heck, despite his action-figure-making aspirations, as far as we know, he never went to Mattel University to major in G.I. Joe.
The surprise U.S. Senate candidate reportedly has a degree in political science from a fully accredited outfit, the University of South Carolina. Of course, this fact is likely to make Gamecocks wince, and yet another reason for Clemson alumni to believe theirs is the superior state-run school. Which it is.
Seeing as how Alvin is a big-time politician, he's now a certified South Carolina VIP. Some might even argue that makes him something of a person to respect, a sage even. Clearly, no one gets as far as he's gotten on sheer luck alone.
