So I knew two, got the third with a lucky guess, but Miami of Ohio? Crazy.
Carter was famously a nuclear engineer on subs, so not a surprise he was an Annapolis grad.

Thought that was his daughter Amy. Oh wait, she was an expert on nuclear proliferation. Never mind.

Looked it up, and the correct answer is ZERO.
Carter graduated with an unspecified Bachelor of Science. Hoover had a Geology degree, but went into mining as a mining engineer.
Free Phogge!!!! And no, crimson doesn't refer to the Tide.
