They are complaining that college costs money. Sounds like they are mad because it is not free. They are victims because they have to pay.

They not only want to attend these ivy league bastions of socialism to get their PHD’s so they can “rule” the rest of us unwashed masses, they also want we the great unwashed to PAY FOR IT!

The crowd is getting louder for the deaf guy! lol

Have anyone else noticed how rude this crowd is to their own speakers? At the 8/28 rally, you could almost hear a pin drop when people were talking...

Berea College is distinctive among institutions of higher learning. Founded in 1855 as the first interracial and coeducational college in the South, Berea charges no tuition and admits only academically promising students, primarily from Appalachia, who have limited economic resources. Berea’s cost of educating a student exceeds $23,000 per year.

Berea offers rigorous undergraduate academic programs leading to Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science degrees in 28 fields. All students work at least 10 hours per week in campus and service jobs in more than 130 departments.

The College has an inclusive Christian character, expressed in its motto “God has made of one blood all peoples of the Earth.” Berea’s primary service region is the Southern Appalachian region, but students come from all states in the U.S. and in a typical year, from more than 60 other countries representing a rich diversity of colors, cultures, and faiths. About one in three students represents an ethnic minority.

Berea continues to build upon a distinctive history of 150 years of learning, labor and service, and find new ways to apply our mission (the Great Commitments) to contemporary times by promoting kinship among all people, serving communities in Appalachia and beyond and living sustainably to conserve limited natural resources.

Something is coming down the pike regarding college tuition, I just know it. This is today’s talking point that higher education is a *right*
