In my experience, Mexicans have not been anxious to stay in school. I went to elementary school in the 40’s and 50’s with a number of Mexicans kids and none of them made it to 7th grade. When you are 15 in 6th grade you tend to drop out and get a job.

I wonder how many illegal Mexican kids actually take advantage of the in state tuition they are eligible for after going to school in Texas for 3 years.

I would like to know, is it 10 per year, 20 per year? Knowing that the number is really small might shut some of you up on the subject and you could start talking about his hair again.

It’s now in the thousands. But even so, they are displacing legal Texans, so if it were 10 or 20, I’d still have an issue...maybe you wouldn’t, but I would.
