C.L.--Throwing money at education

Date: Aug 8, 2005

Sid, is a decent writer and generally uses common sense.

A. Why do we have more than 4 Universities in this state?

B. Why do universities teach remedial courses. What is the real mission of Community Colleges.

When Sid can answer these 2 questions, then we should try throwing money at education.

(I didnt mention new light poles, expenses related to stupid personnel decisions or top heavy adminstation)

Good questions. On another thread someone from the coast wants another university down there. Of course, in 20 years Wiggins will want one too.

If D'Lo has one, Wiggins should have one also.

Wiggins already has "Perkinston University," at least to hear GL tell it!
