Delonte Hollowell - Looking for Support for Graduate School [LOCKED]

Some of the animosity may be the use of Support

Yes semantics but... support tends to carry with it a need for a burden to be carried by the community. You support someone for their loss or because they NEED. I think people, myself included, may have thought support was needed due to a need. This is more of an Ask.

Just my $8.47 (god I posted too much on this).

But I can't blame him for trying. He is leveraging his "fame"  as an UM football player to try to better himself. The worse that can happen is that people do not donate and he has to find another way to pay for grad school.

Audacity can be quite lucrative.

called a J-O-B.

I'd gladly chip in and help pay for blow and hookers, but I'll be damned if my money is going to be wasted on education.

I'm enjoying the shit out of this thread. It's instances like this that make me think we are all just part of some crazyassed social experiment.

Hollowell's is way down the list. Again, I'm not criticizing him, but the site does give one a sense of what is important.

 

I could not find his site either. 

Me upon entrance to this thread.

I find it hilarious that so many on here think they've "earned" their way into careers and that their career is more significant to helping the world go round. So, you make a 6 figure salary designing an automakers next rear view mirror....impressive! Good for you rich folk out there but I guarantee I could find people who helped you along your way on your journey. This kid is pursuing a noble career. Think about who you'll be coming to when you need to fix your marriage or counsel your unruly child? Give the kid a break

I donated. I hate NCAA enforced amateurism. I love Michigan football. Easy decision for me.

 

Donated.

Delonte the Social Worker!

You guys donating are sheep.
Guy is on scholly 4 years and you give him money! Haha
Loans work for washed up former athletes too! Haha
Anyone giving to a GFM must be comfortable with just burning money, bc your money just vanishes with no promise of how its used.

This thread is a disgrace, and you guys should be ashamed of yourselves.

He is a fine young man and I'm donating. I'll contribute to the future of America with no regrets and high hopes. YOU do what you want.

Can we just ban all money request threads period?

if it was a STEM field i'd be in...but social work? waste of money for a graduate degree

While it's a nice cause, loans are an unfortunate part of almost every person's life. I would say that it is safe to say that the overwhelming majority of people need to take out loans at some point in their lives, be it a house, car, or an education.
