What is a “good college” though (to Peter Thiel), Peter Thiel is like the originator of the idea that elite credentialism is a negative indicator in modern society. So probably not any of the institutions like Harvard or Penn or Yale that he mentions in this speech.

A college where in order to get in you have to show you've been diligent on grades, extracurriculars, and testing for 18 years straight. Ofc exceptions to this, like Trump; but most of the student body of such a college would fit this description. That's a good college.

PT just doesn't like the world that these people ended up creating after being enointed elites, which in parts I agree with.
