I know politics will creep in just because of the story's slant, but just think if there is a preferred walk-on in any sport who may qualify and be attracted to Miami because of it. Another tool in the box for our coaches?
Soooo, let's see.
You post an article from Glenn Beck's website, and then say that politics will "creep in"?
$365,000 in federal funding (source: National Science Foundation)? Wow, I guess that isn't for research or anything...
32 private colleges and universities in Florida that share $89 million from the Florida Resident Access Grant? OK, let me see if I can understand this...the right wing wants "school vouchers" to go to private schools at the secondary level, but now it's a bad thing at the university level?
And Pell Grants? (In my Allen Iverson voice) We're talking about PELL GRANTS? Clearly, if UM gives full-rides to DREAMers, they won't be needing Pell Grants (unless they are 1980s era football players, bad joke, I know).
Typical right-wing nonsense...if you get a dime of government funding, even though it has nothing to do with the situation at hand, then the right wing will object if you do anything that does not follow the right-wing talking points.
Lovely.
I'm quite certain that UM has done the math and realizes that there will not be many full-rides given out, with all of the requirements. We're fine when "private school" means that we don't have to disclose every detail of football player discipline, but when it comes to politics, the government should control private schools. Whatever.
