<p>wow, I smell hate and trust me when I say 20k can make a huge difference in how someone’s life is. The students are chosen not just because of the family income but because of the obstacle it poses. I am pretty sure someone whose family earns 30k and has the same stats as someone who earns 50k in the same area has not had as many opportunities as the 50k person. Now, to have reached the same qualifications, the 30k person shows a little more potential of succeeding if the fields are equal which is basically what QB aims to do.</p>
<p>And btw, an extra 20k/yr would pay for a very good in-state education here in VA</p>
<p>And like Lesley said, you do sound arrogant</p>
