...and if you can do it, so can others. Anybody who wants to go to college now and who is willing to make sacrifices to do so can. Those looking for a free ride or to become professional lifetime students should move on.

I also worked summers and for the university.

In 5 years, the only help I got from my parents was that they drove my clothes and stuff up to school my freshman year (I drove my motorcycle), gave me $30 a month that first year (the only year I didn't have a job while in school). Other then that, every dime it cost me was covered by scholarship (and yes, it was a competitive scholarship, but I would have lost it if my father's salary had exceeded a certain limit while I was in school), loans or the money I earned working summers, for the school and from my work as a freelance photographer.
