It is stated as a proposition that lack of support is due to lack of merit This Is not true The lack of merit is due to the lack of support The real reason why the Nebraskan is not better is because it must support the parasite who reads the school news over the shoulder of his fellow, He claims that fees should be at a minimum Hut there are other con siderations.
