If so, it is nice that you believe that in America, if you work hard, you will achieve all of the conventional measures of success. But the fact is that many people have to work damn hard just to get to community college. And also that many people don't work hard at all and still achieve the conventional measures of success [b](the people who were born on third base and think they hit a home run)[/b].

And nobody is saying that kids should not work hard in school. [/quote]
I love you and I'm going to use this --ALL.THE.TIME. [/quote]

I didn't make it up. The incomparable Ann Richards, the former governor of Texas, did.[/quote]

Hard workers will usually be rewarded.  It's not only where you went to college but frankly, 
How hard you apply yourself.  My bright kid who has coasted for much of his life will not be 
"Successful" if he does not learn work ethic.

very true.  college can be what you make of it.  in my opinion it doesn't have to be an Ivy for success to be yours.[/quote]
