But it seems to have been in a matter of 15 minutes or so. She received notice that she had been selected as the high school scholarship winner and then as she was sitting down listening to the speeches in the assembly she decided that she had worked out her finances for Harvard already and other people from her high school needed help more than she did. It’s not like she was taking money away from Harvard. They had already accepted her and she and the school had already worked out the finances. They didn’t know about this scholarship and $10k a year will mean a WHOLE lot more to some other students at school than it would to Harvard.
