Is there a direct correlation between between intelligence & education?

I've met people who only attended school, did almost no work there, and were still sharp as a tack and went on to be great entrepreneurs or lived out their dreams. So no I don't think intelligence and the educational system have anything to do with each other, but experiencing things is technically getting educated, just not in a formal setting. If an idiot goes to/graduates from college, all you have is an idiot with a diploma and maybe some memorization skills and discipline.

people in universities are snobs. community colleges are more smart. we don't fall for government lying authorities and universities.

No. A lot of people who are considered to be intelligent by societal standards weren't actually serious academic students, such as Einstein and Bruce Lee.

The problem of presuming that intelligence and education go hand and hand leads to pseudo-intellectuality or intellectual imitation.
