Suck it up students, you can just add a little to your student loan... which you can borrow from the government...
I’m thinking UCLA should wait a few months if they really want a Hillary! appearance. They might get themselves a bargain. More and more since the election, I’m getting the impression that the going rate for Democrats is declining. Steeply.
Reminds me of Dolly’s comment on how expensive it is to look cheap.

In the nearly two years since stepping down as secretary of state, Clinton has made dozens of paid appearances across the country at industry conventions and Wall Street banks as well as at universities. Her UCLA fee, like those at other universities, went to the Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Foundation, the family’s nonprofit group.No kidding. Not that the Clintons have ever been in touch with the needs of the middle class, mind you; but the more of this that gets out there, the less opaque she gets.
But critics have argued that the carefully staged events and high speaking fees could complicate Clinton’s ability to run a populist campaign built around the economic struggles of the middle class. …
Other controversy surrounded Clinton’s visit. When an online survey asked the public what questions should be posed during a 40-minute question-and-answer session, university officials noted in e-mails that the majority of the suggestions were about the 2012 terrorist attacks in Benghazi, Libya. …I do not usually go for schadenfreude, but it seems that the “public” that is in touch with UCLA is not ignorant of reality.
