You seem overly defensive about this & im not sure why. I’m seriously trying to decipher what you’re expousing here, and honestly, if i wanted to go the easy & simplistic route, I’d just call you a racist and be done with it. Btw- i also cited his being poor as maybe being one of your criteria, which you convienently ignored in your rush to flout the “ I’m not racist, but” card.
To put it simply- you mentioned in general terms some of the reasons why Bazley might not value education. You used the fact that he decided to forgo his scholarship as an example of same. I think that’s being presumptuous and judgmental, ie: You have no earthly idea, and neither do i, why he chose to skip SU, other than that he decided it wasn’t necessary for him to reach his avowed goals...at this time!  As for the straw man about his grades- by all accounts the kid is intelligent and had good grades. If the opposite was true, as your assumption seems to imply, we would have surely heard about  it by now. Anyway, I’m done w/ this. Peace out.
