I honestly didn't know that alumni were expected to donate money to universities they went to. Do you not already give tens of thousands to those unis while studying?
It just reminds me of John Mulaney talking about paying 120K for uni and then getting an alumni letter. "Hey, it's been a while since you've given us money." "Hey, it's been a while since you housed and taught me. I thought our transaction was over."
I have a graduate degree, so I get letters and calls all of the time from both my undergrad and grad schools asking for alumni donations...I haven't been able to make regular student loan payments for either since being unemployed for a significant amount of times both times after graduating, through no fault of my own. But...this is America where you can't get a job without a degree that you have to go into massive debt for, but a degree doesn't guarantee a job either and everything is a business. Yay capitalism!!
The whole American system is so strange seen from the outside, especially from someone in the Nordics. Even the idea of having any sort of connection afterwards doesn’t exist - you just move on.
I’m at ISU right now! Totally didn’t know that one of my favorite you tubers was an alumni!! Also, what is Becky’s RU-vid handle? I need more Becky in my life!
I am not an alumnus, nor do I need to obtain a degree as a 27-year-old who is very happy in her career, however, this video made me want to enroll in ISU classes so I can be part of this lol
@@nicolefurlan I am a nurse and I appreciate my fellow service workers, doctors, nurses , firefighters, and police. I've been a fan of the try guys for a while, but in 2020 I can't back them up when I hear their opinions about defunding the police and encouraging vandalism just because its a statue. Vandalism is vandalism. Thier portral of police has been extremely one sided and bias.
@@kimp.dr.n2652 i don't have anything against ALL police but you have to say theres some awful people in the world. Not just cops. But Im sorry no one should be in fear of dying while getting arrested. Resisting or not. Unless you are threatening the officers lives' i dont believe you should be killed. And Im not even talking mr floyd. Im talking Breonna Taylor. Im talking philando castile, Im talking about Sandra Bland. Im upset for the people who have died. But that doesn't mean i don't have respect for the fighters like cops, firefighters and all the people who risk thier lives for us. All Im saying is I doubt they think ACAB. (Which I think is dumb. Its not all cops. Just like not all people who go to church are good people. Thats also why there is a church in death row. ) But they could be protestint about those specific people loosing thier lives. Or the fact that Breonna Taylor's murder wasn't brought to justice. I want justice for her.
ISU is constantly hitting me up for alumni donations and I usually do. I love getting to see Keith and Becky show me where my donations are going. “It will be the new Schroeder.”
