not to be fake deep but like average poor kids deserve affordable higher education too lmao. we shouldn’t be expected to get a perfect ACT, work 40 hours a week, do another 20 hours of extra circulars, be on the honor roll, take only AP classes, have a 4.5 GPA just to have a CHANCE at being able to afford college. esp when avrage rich kids can go wherever the fuck they want with a subpar GPA and test scores. 

Hope all the dicks who commented about how they don’t want average people in higher education read about this college admissions scandal. You have average rich kids getting into the most competitive colleges in the country through explicit bribery (not even gonna get into how many more are able to get in through more discret means and just simple classism in the admissions process) meanwhile qualified poor students often can’t even afford to go to college but yeah great meritocracy we got here.
