One's level of education
One's level of education should not have to be broadcasted to others on a daily basis. Others should be able to listen to you talk, to examine your reasoning, read your writing, and observe your behavior to form an opinion about your level of education. An educated person usually uses their position and knowledge as an opportunity to serve and not as a trumpet call to self-importance (Walters, 1993). First Lady Michelle Obama said, "Be empowered. Empower yourselves with a good education. Then get out there and use that education to build a country worthy of your boundless promise (2016)." Serve...get out there...and others will know how intelligent you are!
