When asked to comment on her professors’ claims, Harris reportedly laughed—a deep, resonant laugh that anyone familiar with her debates has heard countless times. “Well, I may not have been the best student, but I had fun, didn’t I?” she said with a smile. “Besides, life is about more than grades, isn’t it? It’s about relationships, about connecting with people. And I think I did that pretty well.”
Harris went on to joke that her professors had always underestimated her. “You know, they say I didn’t give straight answers, but here I am. Maybe all that dodging and weaving was just practice for politics. Who knew?”
And there you have it—Kamala Harris, the worst student Howard University has ever seen, but somehow, also one of its most successful.
While Harris’s professors may still be scratching their heads over how their worst student ended up in the White House, there’s a lesson here for all of us: Sometimes, in life, it’s not about knowing the answers. It’s about looking like you know the answers—and smiling confidently while you do it.
