Pierre Mortemousque’s daughter apparently really wanted to attend UGA; he really didn’t want to pay for it — at least full price.

That is what the University of Georgia police say they found after they got a tip the Virginia man was passing himself off as an in-state resident while his daughter was on Greek Row.

Now the Lynchburg, Va., resident is facing four felony charges of theft — totaling nearly $40,000 — for the two years his daughter got her education subsidized by Georgia taxpayers, said UGA Chief Jimmy Williamson.

Simple, change the last name to Rodriguez.

This’ll work until after CW-II, soon to come.

I know a guy from Hawaii who pretended to be from Kenya so he could get lots of foreign student aid. He hardly ever went to class, got crappy grades, and then got really mad when anybody said they thought he came from Kenya!
