[quote=Anonymous]"There was an op-ed piece on one of the news sites about how this young girl from a really poor neighborhood was trying to go to college, but in her neighborhood there was more information about getting welfare assistance if you were an unwed teen mom than there was about how to get into college. She said the only reason she even thought about going to college was b/c her grandmother (although uneducated herself) encouraged her to go. She had to go on something like a 2hr bus ride to get to a community college and also work 40 hrs/week to pay for it. " No financial aid? [/quote]
