To the Editor:
Sent to Delco Times in regards to article on Cabrini incident and mothers opinion.
To the mother of Rupert G. Tate, reading the article about the situation at Cabrini and your views on the students, I became easily frustrated, along with many other students at my school.
I am a senior graduating early this December. I work hard to attend the college. I pay for the school and every cent of what I spend per day down to car expenses and living expenses, as do many other Cabrini students.
It is horrible to say your son was hanging out with “rich white kids” and their parents just hand them money.
Although there are some more fortunate students, as there are at any other school, I would never stand up for someone, even if it was my own son, and explain how it was not his fault and students are to blame.
In any environment you will find someone who is more fortunate than yourself, however using violence is not the way to solve your problems. It is sad to see someone put down these students who spend much time on education, with or without support from their parents. Your son would not have done this if you did not raise him with these types of judgements towards “rich white kids”.
