- Why not... wouldn't you expect the school to help out an organization
- which YOU belonged too? Remember it IS a loan.
-
- One of the pluses of going to a large school is to be able to select from
- a diverse group scene. The University supports in some way all school
- recognized groups, in part with your tuition money, can you say that you
- have done EVERYTHING that your school has to offer? I mean maybe one
- third of my schools students have bothered to get an account to access the
- NeXT computers, does that mean that those who don't have accounts should
- demand that their money not be spent on these computers?

- Just wondering.
