[quote=Anonymous]I was a full-pay student at Dartmouth. My parents paid the tuition, room, board, and books. I worked at an on-campus job for 8 hours/week for my spending money. I worked every summer for 10 weeks, except sophomore summer when I was on-campus taking classes. I played a varsity sport all four years, and had numerous other commitments and interests. Students can do it all. There is ALOT more free time in college than high school, and students can find 8-10 hours to earn their own spending money. Believe me, if you think your student does not need a job because they will be spending that extra 10 hours in the library over the course of a week, you are likely mistaken. 18 year olds are... 18. Be careful. Entitlement starts early. My parents could have easily handed me spending money in college, and they didn't. I learned to work and save. [/quote]
