Greg Gutfeld Education

Gutfeld was born in San Mateo, California, to Jacqueline Bernice Jackie and Alfred Jack Gutfeld. He completed his school studies at Junípero Serra High School and at the University of California, Berkeley. He completed his graduation with a bachelor’s degree in English in 1987. He was liberal in his high school because it benefitted his grades.

He told Reason Magazine “As a teenager, I was liberal, it helped me in school. Where I went to school, if you collected signatures for the nuclear freeze, you got extra credit. I realized the more you seemed to care about something, the more the teachers cared about you and your friends.”

His inclination toward liberals helped him to score good grades but after many debates, he realized they were fraudsters. He started to reconsider his political views once he got to UC Berkeley. Further, he felt that he was neither a liberal nor a conservative, but only a libertarian. After his realization he decided not to join any of the parties now he states that he does not belong to any political group.

He told The Blaze, “When I went to Berkeley by being around liberals I became a conservative and I think by being around conservatives I became more of a libertarian. And I drift in and out. I resist all ideologies… I guess I don’t know what I am. All I know is that I don’t like the boxes of any ideology.”

In an interview held in 2009, he said that during his college he had started experiencing a change in his political thinking.

“I became a conservative by being around liberals, and I became a liberal by being around conservatives. You realize that there’s something distinctly in common between the two groups, the left and the right; the worst part of each of them is the moralizing.”
