George and Grover Cleveland received no college training. Theodore Roose- velt and Woodrow Wilson, the re- maining two of the seven most} famous, were highly educated. Roosevelt was graduated from Harvard and Wilson from Prince- ton, Virginia and Johns Hopkins. | Thomas Jefferson attended William and Mary.

Despite the lack of college train- ing of five of this group of seven, the vast majority of American pres- idents did attend college, about 70 per cent to be exact.
