A society that thinks the choice between ways of living is just a choice between equally eligible "lifestyles" turns universities into academic cafeterias offering junk food for the mind.
George Will
Academic and aristocratic people live in such an uncommon atmosphere that common sense can rarely reach them.
Samuel Butler
Academic qualifications are important and so is financial education. They're both important and schools are forgetting one of them.
Robert Kiyosaki
Academic sociologists have been trained to conceive of their discipline - sociology - as the scientific study of society, and to remit to the sister discipline of psychology the study of individuals.
Richard Wall
Academic success depends on research and publications.
Philip Zimbardo
Academics act like they are important, but when something is academic it is meaningless. People say, 'It's academic, now let's get work done.'
Evan Sayet
After my stellar first grade academic achievements, I continued to perform well in the city primary schools - except for penmanship, which was not my forte.
Vernon L. Smith
All too often, academic departments defend their territory with the passion of cornered animals, though with far less justification.
Bruce Jackson
An academic dialect is perfected when its terms are hard to understand and refer only to one another.
Mason Cooley
An arts education helps build academic skills and increase academic performance, while also providing alternative opportunities to reward the skills of children who learn differently.
Gavin Newsom
As we talk about the need to foster academic achievement, we must recognize and reward those who strive academically, just as we honor athletic champions. Meeting the President of the United States is just the honor we should bestow on our academic champions.
Brad Sherman
At age 11 in 1960, I moved to an academic state secondary school, Harrow County Grammar School for Boys.
Paul Nurse
At that time, the academic orientation was rather technical contrary to that of the university, where art theory is very important. The teachers were renowned artists and among the best of that time.
Ralph Allen
Being a full time coach doesn't mean that we practice more than other teams. In fact we have strict regulations about the length of our practices and playing season. The academic schedule here means that I rarely have a full team at any one practice!
Tony Brown
Being named a great school at a great price means that we offer both high-quality academic programs and real affordability for families. We offer a personal touch that's hard to match at a big school but without a big price tag.
David McFadden
But one did not do feminist theory, as such, in those days, not only because male academic discourse did not recognize such a term, but especially because the women's movement did not either.
Teresa de Lauretis
By that time I was hooked on a career in academic research instead of one in the pharmaceutical industry that I had originally considered in deciding to get a PhD.
Paul Berg
Careers in virtually all academic disciplines are fostered by being a superstar who knows more about one subject than anyone else in the world.
Philip Zimbardo
Credit card companies pay college students generously to stand outside dining halls, dorms, and academic buildings and encourage their fellow students to apply for credit cards.
Louise Slaughter
Four years of football are calculated to breed in the average man more of the ingredients of success in life than almost any academic course he takes.
