<p>Every system has its unfair niches and things that make no sense. It takes a lot of time and trouble to change some of those provisions with a risk that everyone with interest in the funds and program will want to put in his/her 2 cents when such changes are proposed, so things are often just left alone. </p>
<p>As you go through the college app process, college, job, life itself, you’ll find that there is much unfair out there. Much of the fairness you get as a child, young person is due to the protection we give our young and the sense of fairness we try to instill, not a reflection of the way things work in the world.</p>
