Boston Globe: Valedictorian Can't Afford College

Wizbang brings us the story that the Boston Globe is pushing about a Massachusetts high school student who can't afford college.

"This morning's Boston Glob has a sob story about the valedictorian of Assabet Valley Regional Vocational High School in Marlborough, Massachusetts. Juliano Foleiss is a stellar student, loved by his teachers, but will be returning home to attend college because he can't afford to go to school in Massachusetts."

Young Mr. Foleiss must return to his native Brazil where college is free and, oh yeah, where his citizenship lies.

Before you start a "Send Juliano To College Fund", you must realize that Mr. Foleiss and his family are illegal aliens. The residents of Massachusetts have already footed the bill for 5 years of his education. Thousands of people around the world are waiting in line to come here legally, pay their fair share of taxes, and enjoy our state run educational facilities. Valedictorian or not, Mr. Foleiss should not be able to cut in line and get a free ride.
