And in the end, one will be burned at the stake.

Both.

She probably wasn't in a question on the standardized tests so they skipped teaching about her.

I don't remember learning about her

Please, I read on the Internet that she was Jesus' wife. It's 100% true since it's on the Internet.

Nobody lies on the internet because there's nothing to gain by doing so.

^Clearly doesn't know who Joan of Arc is

I know who she is but it's not important to know. What if the are majors in engineering or mathematics?

Not knowing is ok, but concluding on facts knowing that you're ignorant to the subject and without doing proper research, that is not ok.

Then they'd have an excuse to think Joan of Arc is another term for Joan of 2πr•θ/180. Concluding she's the wife of a man who built an ark because her last name contains "ark"—wait, "arc" is an illogical leap I hope most mathematicians and engineers would be embarrassed to make.

And I thought I was a nerd... sheesh!

I agree it's lazy.

Also in college and I didn't even know that much. I'm not a history buff and this has never been taught in any of my classes. I could similarly call people idiots for not knowing something I know about animals/biology.

I was never taught but when I heard of her I looked her up. We barely learned of any female leaders/celebrated females so It was actually nice to read about her

DoomedGemini, feel free to do a brief search for Ada Lovelace and Heady Lamarr. The former is considered the world's first programmer, and the latter was a silver screen actress who invented a jam-proof radio guidance system for torpedoes. This system was refined and serves as part of the foundation of the wireless communication chips in the device you're likely reading this on. I swear, it sounds like fiction.

Yup, I knew that. Pretty damn cool that those women set a path for today, not just Joan of Arc. I find it funny that I learned about those women due to a youtuber named GradeAUnderA. Cause I sure as hell didn't know that in high school.

that's why people are so stupid

Ha, for a split second I thought someone misspelled "safe from English reign"... Well played.

People are too close minded to see it, but it's as clear as day.

I bet you this was the actual connection linking those two. Hilarious man, I wouldn't have thought of it myself, but now you've put it out there, I can imagine the conversation. On the topic, there are almost infinite combination of historical figures to know about. I bet I know some you don't and vice versa. Joan isn't the most well known and the most recent pop culture reference, was at 1999 movie which came out when you guys were 3. College is hard enough without having a judgmental or superior attitude. Relax and enjoy your own hobbies. Mine just happen to be reading, so I do know who she is and many more.

I have faith that someday their minds will spread out and give each other some space, to see it all.

Her ashes were thrown into the river Seine.

She doesn't have a grave, and she was burned at the stake. They continued burning her body until it was only ash.

and Julius Caesar was the dead, salad dude

Excellent!
