College Grad Suing Alma Mater
Trina Thompson, 27, is suing New York's Monroe College for $72,000 because she has not landed a job three months after graduating with a 2.7 grade point average. What do you think?
Katharine Carlson,
Creative Consultant
"Look, if she's not industrious enough to get a job at her dad's firm like I did, then she doesn't deserve a penny."
Nate Holmes,
Systems Analyst
"She should have gone to an 'employment-guaranteed' college, like I did."
Arthur Sellers,
CEO
"I authorized my secretary to get on the phone and offer this Trina Thompson a position in the sales department. This is precisely the type of litigious mediocrity I want on my team!"
