[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was talking to my father, a retired Hopkins professor, about this. He doesn't think highly of how the donation is being used. The typical Hopkins medical graduate will go on to a financially lucrative career where they can easily pay back any loans. To quote him, it's rewarding already privileged kids. [/quote]

not really- a lot of these physicians will be BIPOC and BIPOC professionals support not only their parents financially bit also siblings and their kids through various stages on their lives. I know my own parents routinely had 4-7 extra people living their home aside from their own 2 kids b/c someone they knew needed place to live and we lived in a good public school district and they were considered 'rich'. They were extraordinarily generous but almost everyone I know in tat group had at some  housed and supported a whole other family on that UMC salary for at least 6 months to several years. [/quote]

You are racist.  You are not umc, you are very wealthy and have no clue about how the rest of us live.  Good school district is code for wealth. We are a bad school district in a 1000 square foot house and have had multiple people living with us at different times.  Try making that work with 2-3 bedrooms and one bathroom.  [/quote]
