Quote: There's a ton of well off families who have kids playing soccer. Maybe for some families walking away from $12k per year is not that big of a deal. Why, would a family pay $48k or whatever to go to Furman versus $20k to go to Clemson? I know there are reasons......just saying even if I could afford it, I would swallow really hard paying Furman bills knowing my kid could go to Clemson and get just as good of an education for less than half as much.
As a side note to this whole conversation of soccer, I always wondered why someone (particularly in state) would decide to go spend the money to goto Furman to become a teacher and why someone from the Upstate would go to Furman as opposed to a place like Furman that wasn't in their back yard. That may just be me, though.
