Education is an investment

John,

Right you are.  Nothing in life is free.  But providing a thorough education to our youth is an investment and it does not come as a free ride to them.  We are putting our future in their hands and they will more than repay for the education we provide.

Hello all:

Nothing in life is free. The person should do something to compensate for this "free education."

I paid almost nothing in College, but I also used what I learned in ministering to the people, that was also true in Seminary. I

 went through school on a student loan, which I paid back.

Something for nothing sounds like academic welfare.

Do we know of any low income blind students?

FYI!

Harvard University Announcement 

No tuition and no student loans

Harvard University announced over the weekend that from now on undergraduate students from low-income families will pay no tuition. In making the announcement, Harvard's president Lawrence H. Summers said, "When only ten percent of the students in elite higher education come from families in the lower half of the income distribution, we are not doing enough. We are not doing enough in bringing elite higher education to the lower half of the income distribution."

If you know of a family earning less than $60,000 a year with an honor student graduating from high school soon, Harvard University wants to pay the tuition. The prestigious university recently announced that from now on undergraduate students from low-income families can go to Harvard for free... no tuition and no student loans!

To find out more about Harvard offering free tuition for families making less than $60,000 a year, visit Harvard's financial aid website at: http://www.fao.fas.harvard.edu/ or call the school's financial aid office at (617) 495-1581.
