[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s gross and a big part of what’s wrong with higher education. Entitled parents raising entitled kids with zero intellectual curiosity, just money and status obsessed. [/quote]

Or maybe they just want a decent life for themselves? Judgmental much...[/quote]

This. I want my kids to have the UC life. UMC isn't what it used to be. [/quote]

Then you tell your kids to work hard,  take school seriously and enjoy all the new information and ideas they’ll be exposed to while they get their degree. Encourage them to take some classes just because they’re interesting or unusual, and teach them to respect their professors.  But too many kids show up thinking they’re buying their degree and their $80,000 gets them good grades and a career.  [/quote]

Inheritance is the only sure way to be UC. There are plenty of people who study hard and work hard and the vast majority will never be UC. If that’s the most important thing for your kid, tell them to find a nice boy with a trust fund and forget to take their pill for a few cycles. [/quote]
