I’d bet my bottom dinero that Exeter has a scholarship program for inner-city youth. And, I guess, an inner-city kid who qualifies but whose family can’t go the fare, deserves to be there. I’d hope the scholarship program were racially/ethnically/geographically neutral tho, so a qualified kid from a WV hollow would also be funded.

None of it will matter at all if the kid DOES NOT/WILL NOT apply himself. That’s certain.

If the kid wants to bust his chops and succeed, that’s one thing... if he doesn’t, then it doesn’t matter WHERE he goes to school, what kind of instruction he gets, who the teacher is, or how much it cost.

I meant that Sharpton and friends won’t scream to get inner city minority kids in a place like that because (apart from qualifying) they’d have to work their a^%es off sun up to sun down... and like doing it too. What... WORK???? Really!

Yeah, lots of luck with that! :-)
