I'm into this for a boat load of cash and she's working her *** off to help every which way she can. She said she'd like to slap this lot across the face. I'd like their parents to withdraw their financial support to their kids. Lets watch them protest then.

And the irony is if they're studying sociology, anthropology and philosophy chances are they'll either end up working for the Govenrment or at least relying on Government funding for part or all their income. And I bet they do **** all to change the situation once they're there. Armchair socialists. Tazer their lilly white *****.
There are quite a few options also available to reduce tuition costs. There are so many scholarships and bursaries that go to waste every year that people don't apply for. Something to look into. Doesn't cost a thing to try it out.
