“In 1956, as a freshman at Yale, I waited tables in a student dorm for about $1 an hour, 10 hours a week, over the 30-week academic year. I received a full scholarship, but even if it had ended, I recall that Yale’s “all in” price—including tuition, room and board—was $1,800 a year. My work during the term could have covered one-sixth of that.”
I’d like to point out, not that -I- am saying this or anything but the left would read this paragraph and think only “This is DRIPPING with white privilege” and they would immediately dismiss it as racist garbage.
I worked in the cafeteria washing dishes to pay my tuition, room and board. It was a blast; we had so much fun.
