Jill Biden, speaking to the convention, told the crowd that her husband “knows the value of a community college education–and not just because he’s married to a community college teacher.” In his own turn at the podium, the vice president praised educators and said his wife “is probably right.” “I think I’d have the same attitude did I not sleep with a community college professor every night,” Biden quipped. He clarified, lest you believe otherwise: “The same one. The same, the same one.” ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/52260/joe-biden-sleeping-college-professor/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/52260/joe-biden-sleeping-college-professor/"},"headline":"Watch: Joe Biden Scores With His Latest Sex Joke","datePublished":"2014-04-07T18:53:24.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:08:35.924Z","description":"There's one and only one community college professor in his life, Biden clarifies.","url":"https://time.com/52260/joe-biden-sleeping-college-professor/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Joe Biden"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Noah Rayman","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/noah-rayman/"}],"articleSection":"Politics","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/politics/","name":"Politics"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/52260/joe-biden-sleeping-college-professor/","name":"Watch: Joe Biden Scores With His Latest Sex Joke"}}]}] ```
