Question 3: As the biotech industry is highly knowledge-based, what sort of educational degrees does Venturis Therapeutic’s top leadership have?

A) Calvin Wallen III has an Bachelor's degree from Paul Quinn College in TX, and Grant Gordon (or "AI" as his friends call him) has an Associate's degree from London South Bank University in the U.K.

B) Calvin Wallen III and "AI" Gordon are both accomplished businessmen with MBAs from top schools: Kennesaw State University (Wallen) and University of North Florida (Gordon).

C) Calvin Wallen only has a high school diploma and Grant Gordon doesn’t have even that. Both are dropouts.

D) Calvin Wallen went to dental school at University of Oklahoma where he got the idea to drill for oil instead. Grant "AI" Gordon was one of Wallen’s first patients at the free clinic because with limited income and large and growing aqua vitae expenditures, private dentists were beyond Gordon’s budget.

E) Calvin Wallen has an honorary degree from Harvard University where he was the Commencement Speaker in 1992. Grant "AI" Gordon was working as a groundskeeper on campus when he heard Wallen’s speech. The two met when Gordon was emptying a trash bin that Wallen threw his empty water bottle into.

(The correct answer is at the bottom of this posting)

This is part of our new Venturis Therapeutics educational trivia series. It's educational and fun for the whole family while we're all social distancing!

The correct answer is: (C) - both Mr. Wallen and Mr. Gordon are dropouts, with neither having even a college diploma. Mr. Gordon tries to hide that he lacks even a paltry high school diploma - it's embarrassing. (E) is a bit of a trick answer, because Mr. Gordon was actually working as a groundskeeper at East Mississippi Community College (where he also repeatedly sought admission - unsuccessfully) when he met the commencement speaker, Mr. Wallen. Unfortunately, East Mississippi Community College didn't realize until the check bounced (which led to an internal investigation that uncovered the whole fiasco) that Mr. Wallen's commencement speech about how he founded Wal-Mart was a complete fraud.
