Ivy Leaguers Who Cannot Pronounce "Street"

A Harvard graduate mispronounces the "str" phoneme consistently. During one recent broadcast, Andy Dean said "Wall Shreet" at least ten times. Sometimes, he even omits the "r" and says "sheet".

Though she is a Princeton graduate, the current first lady consistently says, "Shreet" and "Shruggle".
