It took two AP reporters to discover that, shockingly, Kavanaugh preferred talking about basketball over politics while at Yale.
“In some ways, Kavanaugh was like many Yale students of his time: a product of a high-powered East Coast prep school who majored in history, then Yale’s most popular major, and headed for law school after graduating in 1987,” the AP wrote. “Interviews with more than a dozen people who knew him in college and Yale Law School draw a portrait of a serious, but not showy student and sports lover whose drive and competitiveness helped him both on the court and in the classroom.”
They interviewed “more than a dozen people” to learn: 1) he probably would have preferred to be an NBA player, 2) he belonged to an all-male “senior society” called Truth and Courage, 3) he wasn’t outspoken about his political views, and 4) he keeps in touch with his law-school housemates. – READ MORE
