If it were a community college in another state, maybe. But any of the ones around here are going to be filled with people I went to high school with. I'm not interested in that.
I don't blame you in the slightest. When I was searching for a college, nothing within the state was in consideration.
Thank you! Unfortunately I'll have to stay in the state, since loans and such are covering it all, and it will be much easier to pay back. Also, I have a scholarship from the state of Florida for 75% of my tuition. Well, I did. We'll see if it's still there. I have to get some paperwork in order and make some phone calls.
what, you're not covered by the bailout
Haha. I have no idea. They use the money they tax from the state lottery for these scholarships in Florida.
let's start a thread on gambling and how the state attempts to run the only "legitimate" games in town...or at least get in on the action in states that "permit" gambling...
just another way to fleece the sheeple
i wrote a letter to the ed. in a local paper,blasting the state liquor commission a while back, after a prolonged 'sting' operation that resulted in a raid on the local vfw.
these 'heroes' championed themselves over the shut-down of an illegal gambling operation = poker machines....big fucking deal.
they went on to cast the club as predatory because people were 'spending their paychecks' on the machines, yet, in the other room, legal, state-sanctioned scratch tickets & pull-tabs are perfectly acceptable, as the state gets to wet its beak.
also, non-predatory,$30-a-shot scratch tickets are available at every liquor store in the state. as though you couldn't squander a paycheck on those fucking things.
their hypocrisy knows no bounds
