The out of town parents must be clueless!

No idea at all about the school’s reputation...lol.

LOL, apparently not! They even buy their kids the fanciest cars and houses so they can party in luxury. I *think* that a lot of kids come here from SoCal, some because they couldn't get into the U.C. system, others to get away from their parents (but still have them pay for everything). Yes, I was a little resentful when I was in grad school and working literally five jobs AND running up student loans, LOL. AND, my undergrad science degree was harddd work.

(of course, I could have just waited to go to school because now Hussein wants to forgive all of those loans....}

A little off-topic but look at the “most-commented” stories in today’s “Red Star” (http://azstarnet.com/)
I’m embarrassed by some of the schmucks we have here in the People’s Republic ... I can’t believe that first story, grrrrrrr.

* Dupnik declares immigration law an ‘embarrassment’ (365)
* Poor census responses could cost Arizona a 9th congressional seat (124)
* County’s early ballots show strong interest in Prop. 100 (80)
* Campus Correspondent: Some UA honors students leave citing SB1070 (75)

The UA’s undergrad requirements are laughable but the graduate spots are some of the most competitive out there.
