Did his dad facilitate George W. in getting his education on paper?

His dad got him into Yale, and once you get into Yale, unless you really screw up, it's hard to get kicked out - who wants to be the professor whose grade sinks the kid's education and his thousands of dollars with it?
Also, it's hard to fail a class. A lot of times you have to stop showing up or not complete your work. Many professors will give a student a C out of kindness, or because they don't want to deal with the ensuing oucry when a student fails. So a kid gets another C, and another C, and another...
Also, many students cheat. Plagiarism, even at large universities, is growing at an astounding rate. And it's hard to detect a student paying another to write his paper. I have known plenty of students who cheated their way through an entire college career.

President Bush earned his degree by studying hard and getting good grades, just like anyone else would get a degree from a prestigious University. Granted, wealthy people do obtain certain social amenities but earning a degree does not pertain to wealth.

Unfortunately, in the Ivy League getting in is very difficult for those who do not have powerful and wealthy families; but leaving with a degree is not so difficult.
Grade inflation is a huge problem for all schools; but the Ivy League has an especially negative reputation for this matter. See the link below for a grade inflation reports from the Carnegie Foundation and USA Today:

I was hoping they could launch a transcript of his grades, as I doubt he had a C-!! wager dad had some thing to do with that as Bush replace into in a drunken stupor all 4 years! you won't be able to get a level in nursing with those grades. you would be kicked out in a heartbeat!! maximum require a three.0 or extra desirable! i don't understand how everyone gets into Harvard corporation college with a C- from Yale, and that i don't understand if bush ever complete as i won't be able to look to discover his grades!

No. He just happened to have a computer with a program that could print degrees.

"Follow the money"
Based on his school records, a blind man with his balaclava on backwards and a bucket on his head might not have let George into Ferrum College, and yet somehow...

He had better grades than John Kerry. Look it up.
Thanks Poncho. Tried this one before re-posting. It works.

He probably studied hard and went to class and took notes and talked to the instructors.
David W - your link does not compute.

I don't know how he did much of anything. The university should have stopped him while it had the chance.
