[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So if they child can't get an on-campus job (or University sponsored job) because they are not on financial aid, is there a reason why they can't work at McDonalds, Subway, Pizza Hut or any of the other "off-campus" facilities that are there? I understand that if the school is in a rural area with limited employment then these jobs may go to the locals but if that's the case then there isn't much to spend money on in the area anyway. Also, the job market when they graduate is going to be competitive so they'd better learn to compete while in school - even if it's for the job as the deli clerk at the grocery store.[/quote] I think his summer job working in a research lab is a better way to make money then working at McDonalds during the school year when I want him to study and take advantage of the wonderful resources at the college. Not all students are the same. Not all financial circumstances are the same. One size does not fit all.[/quote]
