Quote:My feelings on Carson are well known, but even I think this "scholarship" thing is stupid. It's essentially a government grant that pays for your post-secondary education in full, and it's awarded based upon merit and high school performance. Yes, I know that there's a post-education commitment to a certain employer for a set amount of years, but let's be honest on this one: lots of scholarships are given out on the assumption that you're going to proceed down a certain career path. A mass communications scholarship isn't going to be given to a budding accountant any more than a physicians' association is going to give a scholarship to a liberal arts major.

 

If it walks like a duck and it quacks like a duck, I don't care what the official terminology is. It's a freaking duck.
