I am Carson’s age. I can’t remember squat about my scholarship offers, except in a hazy overview.
I was a member of a graduating class of 640 students in a Detroit public school in 1968 and I can only give you 6 names that I associated with. Two who graduated a year ahead of me, one who graduated a year behind me and my best friend and two other swim team members........
If anyone else in either my class of 640 or the rest of the entire school were to be asked if they heard of me, they would say who???????
Looking at the dates, I think I figured out that if he did talk directly to Westmoreland, it would have been after the deadline for beginning the application process anyways. In other words, Carson was telling a fairy tale.
