<p>Yeah... I know... I'm getting a job freshman year... Even in the acceptance package, it said Yale's min wage is 11.50 ish... saying that work-study was possible with their generous financial aid package... </p>

<p>I can already do the math... 12 bucks an hour, with 10 hours per work week, and 4 weeks per month is generous pay for an undergraduate with no skills.</p>
