By offering more aid to middle class kids and below Harvard, Yale, Penn etc get more of the worlds best and brightest. God for them it’s a wise investment. Today’s students are tomorrows donors.

There are all ready more of us than slots at all the good schools and all this good programs. This just creates more opportunity for all of us.
Oh and Princeton--were waiting to hear from you.
