Well I disagree.Turquoise wrote:
A rich kid doesn't need a tax-subsidized scholarship. If a private college wants to hand one out, that's great, but I'm not paying for that shit.
Entry to University should be entirely merit based for all students and you or your parents economic situation should not even be a consideration.
On top of that. Why shouldn't a rich kid get a tax subsidised scholarship? They're probably paying more tax then you to start with, why should they be forced to pay for your poor arse and then have to pay for themselves as well?
That makes no sense what so ever...11 Bravo wrote:

The only people I've ever met that really complained about the cost of college areCybargs wrote:
drunkface you have to realize most of the time when a poor kid applies to harvard they pretty much get a free ride. makes for good PR as well. public colleges are dirt cheap enough and you can apply for grants/FASFA. no one really gets fucked.
Alright, I guess I need to clarify what I meant.DrunkFace wrote:
Yeh, for a small select few. You must have missed the all students. I even bolded the all.Cybargs wrote:
They do its called a MERIT scholarship. if a poor kid does really well in school he can get both a merit and need base scholarship.Not if your school system isn't fucked.If you make all scholarships a merit based when it just fucks over the poorer students even more.You don't see a problem with that? And by entry I also mean a feasible method of actually attending/paying. Getting into Harvard is pointless unless you have a way of paying.Edit: Drunkface if you're talking about entry, it's all merit and arguably race based. Asians get shafted the most coz they "study harder" and black kids get into colleges a lot easier. my black friend got into SUNY albany with a 2.8 GPA and a 1530 SAT score. shit she even knows she got in coz she black.
Also GPA and SAT are just meaningless random numbers to me.

It depends on the state. In NC, some out-of-state students pay less than they would pay for in-state. This is why NC gets a lot of students from other states and from other countries. Our tuition rates are dirt cheap compared to a lot of the U.S.Cybargs wrote:

Students have staged occupations at universities including Royal Holloway College, Plymouth, Warwick, Birmingham, London South Bank, University College London, Essex, Cardiff and UWE Bristol.
In the iconic Bodleian Library in Oxford, students are planning to hold a "teach-in" as part of the occupation.
In Birmingham, students called on the university authorities to reject what they call a "socially regressive plan that will limit access to education".
Students staging an occupation at University College London said they were protesting against "savage cuts to higher education and government attempts to force society to pay for a crisis it didn't cause".

but it's a great excuse to meet/pick up chicks and do nasty deeds, which is probably the main reason most people are getting involved in all this...its just all about networking, even when it isn'tpersonally i think this latest 'development' in the movement is all bollocks. camping an extremely valuable picture-gallery at our university and sitting there all night tweeting about your 'revolutionary activity' isn't going to do much about the proposed national-level cuts. aggrieving our poor old principle as if he has anything to do with executive policy making is a fucking joke. it's just silly.
A lot of college kids go to university because their parents made them and they don't really have a direction in life, nor do they enjoy what they're studying. They do this kind of shit because it makes them feel important and like they're actually doing something useful with their lives. But more than that, they need to make sure everyone else knows that they're doing this and it'll be a waste if no one else knows about it.Mekstizzle wrote:

And then they take jobs in the city.Uzique wrote:
of course they prefer to go to the top-toff university in the country so they can shout anti-tory slogans and feel 'radical'
funny really how 'establishment' they are, as well as everything about their background/lives...
but they sure do like to play anarchists!
