<< Bright: My message to Monica is, "Be the President, don't blow the
President." It's so sad, because she ws this academic child genius leader
when she was little, and she really wanted to be President. She made a
big deal about it when she was in the early grade school years, and then
when puberty came her father and mother completley destroyed her
education. She wanted to go to good schools, and they had tons of money,
and she could have gotten a superb education, and they deep-sixed
everything. Her brother got this huge bar mitzvah, and she got a hot dog
party.
She got sent to a fat farm instead of a four-year undergraduate school.
She could have gone anyplace with her grades and her talent, and she just
got screwed because they had the attitude that "this isn't what's
important, what's important is that you're not pretty enough." >>
At $27K per year tuition, elitist Lewis and Clark College is hardly a fat farm. It's a pretentious school of almost exclusively prep school grads known to brutalize kids from public schools.
