Sorry, but I saw too many of the wealthy who had nothing other than Daddy’s money get into my classes.
OBTW, if I may ask, exactly when did you and your siblings go to college? Try doing it now when wages are up, perhaps, 40% from the 1970s, while housing, groceries, utilities are up by 250% or more over that same time period.

Of course, if you are Mitch McConnell, Donald Trump, Peter Thiele, et cetera, you just pay your kid’s tuition to Harvard or Yale. He or she majors in law, or finance, or pre-med, or … and links up with other wealthy families.
If you aren’t one of the hoi aristoi, and your kids need a scholarship to afford a BA in management, she or he has to pay income tax on money they don;t have.
So your kids wind up stuck as a McDonald’s night manager – even if they could be the one to discover how to cure glioblastemas.

You wretches detestable on land and sea:you who seek equality with lords are unworthy to live. Give this message to your colleagues: rustics you were, and rustics you are still; you will remain in bondage,not as before, but incomparably harsher.
For as long as we live we will strive to suppress you,and your misery will be an example in the eyes of posterity.
I’ve got a nice set of oil-stones to lend. Keeps things nice and sharp.
