What kind of fireman??
A full-time fireman or a part-time volunteer fireman?
Besides, what one individual does not represent the income spectrum of the group.
I don't know of too many middle-class working schlubs who can afford to send their kids to Duke unless their bright enough to get a scholarship.
Most scholarships are need based.
That is a very ignorant statement. My brother played lacrosse, through college, I might add; UMASS. Alot of the kids on his team came from working class families, and alot of them got scholarships. Lacrosse in the north is like football is in the south.
