SUMARRY ESSAY 1-Hidden Intellectualism In Hidden Intellectualism of Gerald Graff's, he states that intellect does not only exist in the scholarly form of thinking but also equipped with street smarts, who can often times be more intellectual and have the ability to excel academically far more than one may believe. Graff gives a personal incident of his own experience, growing up loving sports and being less engaged in his schoolwork. He talks about how he wanted to fit in with the "hoods" and also tried to be smart, but did not show it too much for fear of being beaten. In the author’s case, his involvement in sports allowed him to see that discussing and reading about sports, he was able to develop his intellectual skills. In his article, the author gives a very intelligent insight on how street smarts and personal interest outside of the academic world can create and convert someone into a more intellectual person than merely focusing on the topics presented in school.
