[harpu]

You know what they say about a picture...

They can be worth a 1,000 words!!!

[lurk]

I predicted this.
And who will do her papers and projects for her?
Her major will have ‘studies’ in the title.
And she will acquire a union or government job after ‘graduating’.

[bmwcyle]

She can be homecoming queen now.

[dfwgator]

Ruh-roh! Here comes Obamao’s next cabinet appointment.

[nutmeg]

Got that right. Maybe pre-K...

[Bringbackthedraft]

Amazing, why stop there, she could get a professorship at Columbia. She’s going to make it big $$$$ time for her participation in the trial. Wait till she gets that 1M offer from Larry Flindt.

[tacticalogic]

I guess we’re just too “old school”.

[fwdude]

Going to college and getting a marketable education implies shouldering responsibility.

I’ll bet Jeantell passes.

[KC_Conspirator]

This woman is not prepared for college level courses.

[max americana]

“College?
She cant read, write or speak with any skill”

She could NOT even read her own text! Unbelievable. I can pick an illegal off the entrance of the Home Depot in front of us and he can read what he writes.

Does she even have a high school diploma yet?

If she majors in sociology, a Kindergarten education will do.

Well somebody along the way, be they parents or people in the schools, or friends, whomever, didn’t take it upon themselves to teach her how to speak correctly. Using slang is fine, as long as you know how to speak and write properly.

Children don’t naturally know how to speak, they copy those around them. When I’m around my friend’s children and they speak improperly, I correct them, so later on, they will know and can get hired somewhere. Apparently nobody at home or in a school drilled it into her the proper way to speak.

[Mr Ramsbotham]

She’d do better to learn a trade.

[King Moonracer]

They use a tuition bribe when a bag of weed will suffice; a microcosm of liberal excessive overspending.

[Cubs Fan]

ha, this woman makes honey boo boo look like Albert Einstein.

what a joke.

[dfwgator]

Children don’t naturally know how to speak, they copy those around them.

Makes me think of the old Steve Martin routine, "Can I mambo dogface to the banana patch."

[editor-surveyor]

She’s not prepared for upper primary grade courses!

[red-dawg]

She's already has a PHD in Linguistics.

Because of her, I now know the meaning of two words:

Nigga & Cracka.
