Letter: Diversity of types of students makes us better off
(11/11/02 5:00am)
While Bill English's most recent column was simply riveting, I feel that he forgot several important versions of "student." There's the student as future spouse, for example. And then there's the student as lush--those kids who live for the weekend. Then, we can't forget the student as prisoner. They're here because mom and dad put enough pressure on them to make them come to a "good" school to "get ahead," while all they want to do is live off the folks for a few more years.
