How A Guy From A Montana Trailer Park Overturned 150 Years Of Biology - The Atlantic

Sometimes the most boring, and neglected, corners of science are the ones which will upset the proverbial apple cart. The oft-overlooked and humble lichen is a model of symbiosis, but how many organisms are living together in harmony? Weirder still is the chemistry which may be a source of novel compounds which may prove beneficial for humanity. Taking a left turn at Albuquerque, Ed Yong notes that our proud Montanan Toby Spribille was given a shot at university outside of the country, having a snowball's chance of admission within our fifty states, and for free. If socialized education can do something great for an American in a niche category of biology, just think of all the potential Einsteins, Hawkings, and Daystroms being lost to history thanks to a lack of access to higher education due to the laughable American "education" system, poverty, and, sadly, race.
