Isn't this a little ironic, given that Steve dropped out of college in his first year? (Granted, he grew up in a very different environment than the targets of this program.)

Not everyone is Steve Jobs, and not everyone should skip or drop out of college.

(Argue all you want about effectiveness, cost and availability, but, it provides a service to some that is deemed worth the time, money and effort. And that is basically the bottom line.)

Yar, would you rather it be for psylocibes?

Perhaps it will be for ethnobotany majors.

Why not just give them $500k outright?
